- .RZ "CHERRY CREAM CHEESE PIE" "A simple cherry cream cheese pie"
- My wife makes this for me periodically, and it is always delicious. No
- baking is required, and it is very easy to make.
- .IH "Makes one pie"
- .IG "1" "graham cracker pie shell"
- .IG "8 oz" "cream cheese" "250 g"
- .IG "\(12 cup" "sour cream" "125 ml"
- .IG "1/3 cup" "granulated sugar" "60 g"
- .IG "\(12 tsp" "vanilla" "2.5 ml"

- .PH
- .SK 1
- Cream together the cheese and sour cream.
- .SK 2
- Fold in sugar gradually.
- .SK 3
- Add vanilla and mix well.
- .SK 4
- Fold in whipped cream.
- .SK 5
- Pour into pie shell and chill for at least 3 hours.
- .SK 6
- Pour excess syrup from the can of cherry pie filling. Leave some, but you
- certainly don't need all of it. The sauce should cover the cream cheese mix,
- but the cherries shouldn't be drowning in it.
- .SK 7
- Pour pie filling on top. Serve cold.
- .NX
- If you don't have the time to sit around for 3 hours waiting for the pie
- to chill, make the cream cheese filling the night before and let the pie
- chill overnight.
- .PP
- We prefer to use non-dairy whipped cream substitute.
- We usually use the same brand name ingredients for best results:
- Philadelphia cream cheese, Breakstone's sour cream, Cool-whip,
- and Comstock cherry pie filling.
- .SH RATING
- .I Difficulty:
- easy.
- .I Time:
- 20 minutes preparation, 3 hours chilling.
- .I Precision:
- approximate measurement OK, especially with the vanilla.
