Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (9-inch) graham cracker crust (store-bought or homemade)
- 8 oz. cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 21 oz. cherry pie filling
Instructions
- Make the crust by combining graham cracker crumbs with melted butter and sugar, then set in the refrigerator.
- Mix softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form and fold it into the cream cheese mixture gently.
- Transfer the mixture into the prepared crust and smooth the top. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.

Notes
Ensure cream cheese is properly softened to avoid lumps.
Chilling overnight helps achieve a firmer texture.
Use a rubber spatula for folding in whipped cream to maintain lightness.
