NO BAKE CHERRY DELIGHT
Why I Love This Recipe
When I need a fast dessert to feed a large number of people, this one is always a hit.
Ingredients You'll Need
Crust
2 cups crushed graham crackers
½ cup melted butter
¼ cup white sugar
Filling
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1 (8 oz) package cream cheese, room temperature
1 cup powdered sugar
Topping
1 large can of cherry pie filling
Directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
For crust – Mix crushed graham crackers, melted butter and white sugar together. Then press evenly into a 11×7 baking dish. Place into oven for 5-8 minutes.
*Set crust in fridge to cool while you prepare the filling…if it’s too hot, it will cause filling to melt when you add it later*
For Filling – With an electric mixer in a large bowl, whip the heavy cream until it forms small peaks/thickens. Be careful not to go overboard since it will eventually turn into butter if you whip it too much!
In another bowl, mix cream cheese and powdered sugar. Fold in the heavy cream that you whipped earlier by hand. Then take this mixture and gently pour it onto your graham cracker crust (use a spatula and be gentle). Then spread the cherry pie filling on top. Refrigerate overnight.
