Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 stick butter melted
  • 24 oz cream cheese softened
  • 3 cups powdered sugar
  • 5-6 cups frozen whipped topping thawed
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 42 oz cherry pie filling 2 cans

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter until mixture resembles wet sand.
  • Press crust mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish. Bake for 20 minutes until lightly golden, then cool completely.
  • In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until completely smooth and creamy.
  • Add powdered sugar one cup at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract.
  • Fold in whipped topping in two additions until light, fluffy, and fully combined.
  • Spread filling evenly over the cooled crust using a spatula.
  • Top evenly with cherry pie filling, spreading cherries across the entire surface.
  • Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight before slicing and serving.

Notes

For easy variations, swap cherry topping with blueberry or strawberry pie filling. Chill overnight for the cleanest slices.
