Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 0.5 cups unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 21 ounces cherry pie filling
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix well until the crumbs are evenly coated with the butter.
Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x9-inch (or similar-sized) square dish to form the crust. Set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth and creamy. Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
Spread half of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the prepared crust.
Carefully spoon the cherry pie filling over the cream cheese layer, spreading it into an even layer.
Top the cherry pie filling with the remaining cream cheese mixture, spreading it smoothly and evenly.
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow the layers to set and flavors to meld.
When ready to serve, slice into squares or rectangles and enjoy your Cherry Yum Yum!
