This is the best cherry cheese cake I've ever tasted! It's light, creamy and delicious. The recipe was given to me years ago and it's a staple dessert at our house. The recipe serves four but I double it and use a 9 x13 dish which serves 8-10.This is the first dessert to go at potlucks and I am repeatedly asked for the recipe. Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups graham cracker crumbs |
1/4 cup melted butter (i use a little bit more) |
1/4 cup white sugar |
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 envelope dream whip, whipped |
2 tablespoons milk |
1 can cherry pie filling |
Directions:
1. CRUST: Mix together graham cracker crumbs, sugar and melted butter.
2. Press into bottom of 8 x8 pan.
3. Bake at 375 degrees for 10 minutes; then cool.
4. FILLING: Cream cheese and vanilla together until light.
5. Add whipped topping and milk and beat until well mixed.
6. Pour into pan and chill.
7. Spread cherry pie filling over cheese layer and chill well.
