EASY CHERRY CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Place the cream cheese in a bowl in the microwave.
• Microwave it on the defrost setting for a couple of minutes to slightly soften the cream cheese (This is so that you don't kill your mixer when beating the cream cheese).
• Add sugar to cream cheese and beat it with an electric mixer until smooth.
• Add eggs and vanilla and blend until smooth.
• Pour into ready made crust.
• Bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes.
• Note: The cheesecake is done when the sides are puffed- The center will not be as puffed- It will be possible to jiggle the center slightly but it will not be runny.
• Let cool.
• Top with cherry pie filling and chill.
