Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs* ((10 full graham cracker sheets))
1/3 cup butter (melted)
1/4 cup sugar ((I use slightly less than 1/4 cup))
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese (softened)
1 (8 ounce) container Cool Whip (thawed)
3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling ((or other favorite pie filling))

Steps:

  • Combine all crust ingredients and firmly press with fingers into a 9x9-inch pan or 9-inch pie dish.
  • Using a stand or hand-held electric mixer, whip softened cream cheese until fluffy. Stir in the Cool Whip, confectioners' sugar, lemon juice and vanilla with the cream cheese until smooth.
  • Spread cream cheese mixture over graham cracker crust.
  • Pour cherry pie filling over cream cheese mixture and spread in an even layer. Refrigerate until firm, at least 1 hour or overnight. I chill mine overnight for best results. The longer this dessert is refrigerated, the better it will set up.
  • Cut into squares and serve!
