Easy No Bake Cherry Cheesecake Recipe

 April 27, 2014     Leave a Comment

Mmmm...Lemony tart and cherry sweet!

I am not sure of the origination of this wonderful recipe, but I have made it for years. When I was twenty-something and didn’t know how to cook a thing, this was always my sure-fire go-to recipe for any gathering. To this day, I still love this recipe. Quick, easy, and delicious!

Also a great recipe to begin with when teaching children how to “cook” because no actual cooking is involved.

INGREDIENTS:

  • One 9″ prepared graham cracker crust
  • 1/3 cup of concentrated lemon juice
  • 8 ounces of softened cream cheese (leave out of refrigerator for a couple of hours)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 14 ounces of sweetened condensed milk (NOT evaporated milk)
  • 1 large can of cherry pie filling chilled

DIRECTIONS:

  1. In large mixer bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy.
  2. Beat in sweetened condensed milk.
  3. Add lemon juice and vanilla. Turn mixer to low and mix until just blended.
  4. Pour into prepared crust. Chill three hours or until set.
  5. Just before serving, top with desired amount of chilled cherry pie filling.

Great with a cold glass of milk!
