Easiest No-Bake Cherry Cheesecake

Ingredients

For the crust:

• 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
• ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
• ¼ cup sugar

For the filling:

• 16 oz (2 packages) cream cheese, softened
• 1 cup powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 cup heavy whipping cream

For the topping:

• 1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling (or fresh cherries if preferred)

Instructions

Make the crust:

In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until well combined.

Fill a 9-inch springform pan with the mixture by pressing it into the bottom. Tightly pack it using the back of a measuring cup. While the filling is being prepared, keep it chilled. Get the filler ready: Using an electric mixer, whip the softened cream cheese in a large bowl until it’s smooth. Add the vanilla essence and powdered sugar gradually, stirring until well combined. Beat the heavy cream in a separate bowl until firm peaks form. The whipped cream should be gently folded into the cream cheese mixture until it is well mixed. Put together: Evenly cover the cold crust with the cream cheese filling. Set in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours (overnight is ideal if you can wait!).

Add the topping: Cover the cheesecake with the cherry pie filling prior to serving.
