No-Bake Cherry Pie is an easy dessert with a smooth cream cheese filling, sweet cherry topping, and graham cracker crust. Get the flavor of cheesecake without all of the work. You don't even have to turn on your oven!
In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese on medium-high speed using a stand or hand mixer, until the cream cheese is light and fluffy.
2 packages (8 ounces each) full fat cream cheese
Reduce your mixer speed to low and slowly add in the sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice, vanilla extract and stir until they are completely mixed in.
Pour the cream cheese mixture into your prepared graham cracker crust. Place in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
1 prepared 9-inch graham cracker crust
When you are ready to serve, pour the cherry pie filling over the center of the pie.
1 can (21 ounces) cherry pie filling
Notes
Store in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.To get smoother slices, freeze the pie for 15 minutes before serving.Customize with your favorite fruit toppings.Graham Cracker Crust: A store-bought graham cracker crust can be used. If you would like to make your own graham cracker crust then mix
1 ¼ cups (125 grams) of graham cracker crumbs
¼ cup (50 grams) of granulated sugar
6 tablespoons of melted butter (85 grams)
⅛ teaspoon of salt.
Press into the bottom and sides of a pie dish, packing it in very firmly, and bake at 350°F (177°C) for 7-8 minutes. Cool completely before preparing the filling. Alternatively, you can make this a completely no-bake recipe by refrigerating the crust for 2 hours rather than baking it.
