Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 0.33 cups Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 21 ounces Cherry pie filling
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar. Add the melted butter and stir until the mixture resembles wet sand.
Step 3
Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom and slightly up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish. Use the bottom of a measuring cup or your hands to pack it tightly.
Step 4
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes or until lightly golden and set. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely before adding the filling.
Step 5
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes.
Step 6
Gradually add the sweetened condensed milk, beating constantly until well combined and silky.
Step 7
Mix in the lemon juice and vanilla extract, blending until fully incorporated.
Step 8
Pour the cream cheese filling into the cooled crust and smooth the top with a spatula.
Step 9
Refrigerate the pie for at least 2-3 hours, or until the filling is firm and set.
Step 10
Once the pie is set, spread the cherry pie filling evenly over the top, creating a beautiful layer of cherries.
Step 11
Return the pie to the refrigerator until ready to serve. Slice and enjoy!
