Can I just say this is the best Cheesecake I have ever made! My husbands favorite thing on his birthday is Cheesecake. I will never use another recipe or ever buy another Cheesecake from the store :) Enjoy!





Ingredients:
1 Premade Graham Cracker Crust or make your own
1 envelope dream whip
1 8oz. pkg. cream cheese
1 16 oz. can Cherry Pie filling (or any flavor..the picture above is Raspberry)

To Make your own crust:
1 individual package of Graham Crackers, crushed
3 Tbsp. white sugar
3 oz. butter, melted

Directions:
In a medium sized bowl, combine crushed Graham crackers and melted butter and sugar. Mix well and mold to the contour of pie plate. Brown in a 350 degree oven for 5-8 minutes. Watch closely so it won't burn.

For filling:
Whip dream whip envelope according to the package instructions. In another bowl beat cream cheese until smooth. Then combine both mixtures. Pour into the prepared graham cracker crust. Let it set for a few minutes. Then Top with the pie filling and chill over night.
