Servings: 8
Ingredients
- For the crust:
- 3 T. white sugar
- 1/3 C. butter or margarine, melted
- 1 ½ C. or 18 graham crackers, crushed
- For the filling:
- 1 (8 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
- 1 (15 oz.) can sweetened condensed milk

- 1 (16 oz.) can cherry pie filling
Instructions
- Start out by combining the ingredients for the crust and mixing them together really well.
- Very firmly press the crust into a pie pan. If you’d like, you could save about a 1/4 cup of the crust to sprinkle on top when you are all done.
- In a medium size bowl mix cream cheese, sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice and vanilla until well blended.
- Pour the mixture over the top of the crust. Place in the fridge to cool for 2 to 3 hours.
- After the filling has settled, your dessert is now ready to serve! After cutting a piece, you can top the dessert off with some cherry pie filling. If you are not a fan of cherries, you can use any number of delicious fruit toppings for this dessert for some customization.
