Ingredients

Scale

8 ounces cream cheese (softened)

1 cup powdered sugar

8 ounces whipped topping

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

4 tablespoons melted butter

21 ounces cherry pie filling


Instructions

Prepare the crust by mixing graham cracker crumbs with melted butter. Press into an 8×8 dish and refrigerate for 10 minutes.

In a bowl, blend softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Fold in whipped topping gently.

Spread the cream cheese mixture over the crust evenly.

Pour cherry pie filling on top, spreading it gently to avoid disrupting layers.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.

Notes

For a gluten-free option, substitute regular graham crackers with gluten-free ones.

– Fresh cherries can be used instead of pie filling for a lighter flavor.
