Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 10 full sheets)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream, cold
  • 1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling

Method
 

  1. Grease a 9-inch springform pan. Mix graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Press firmly into the bottom and slightly up the sides. Freeze for 10 minutes.
  2. Beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until completely smooth, about 2 minutes, scraping the bowl.
  3. In another bowl, whip the heavy cream to soft peaks. Fold into the cream cheese mixture. Spread over the crust, cover, and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
  4. Remove the pan ring. Spoon cherry pie filling over the top and serve cold.

Notes

Chill at least 4 hours or overnight for clean slices. If the cherry pie filling is too firm, stir it first to loosen. A springform pan makes serving easiest, but a deep pie dish also works.
