Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
• 14 oz Sweetened condensed milk
• 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
• 0.75 cups Fresh lemon juice (from about 4 lemons)
• 1 tbsp Lemon zest
• 1 cups Heavy cream
• 1.5 cups Fresh cherries, pitted and halved
• 2 tbsp Powdered sugar (optional, for topping)

Directions

Step 1

In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar. Pour in the melted butter and mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.

Step 2

Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form an even crust. Use the bottom of a glass or measuring cup to compact it firmly. Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the filling.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.

Step 4

Gradually add in the sweetened condensed milk and continue beating until well combined and lump-free.

Step 5

Mix in the fresh lemon juice and lemon zest until the filling is thick and smooth.

Step 6

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with the electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the lemon filling mixture until no streaks remain.

Step 7

Spread half of the lemon filling evenly into the chilled pie crust. Sprinkle half of the cherry halves across the filling to create an even layer.

Step 8

Spread the remaining lemon filling over the cherries and smooth the top with a spatula. Decorate the surface of the pie with the remaining cherries.

Step 9

Cover the pie with plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to set.

Step 10

Before serving, dust the top of the pie with powdered sugar, if desired. Slice and enjoy!
