No-Bake Cherry Lush Dessert

Step 1

Spray a 9x9 inch pan with nonstick cooking spray.

Step 2

Mix the graham crackers together with the butter in a small bowl. Reserve 2 tablespoons for the top.

Step 3

Press the graham crackers into the bottom of the pan.  I like to use a flat measuring cup to press it down good.

Step 4

Using a hand mixer, mix the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla together until light and fluffy.

Step 5

Fold the cool whip into the cream cheese with a spatula.  Don’t overmix.

Step 6

Spread half of the cream cheese mixture over the crust.  Then pour the can of pie filling over the cream cheese.

Step 7

Lastly, spoon remaining cream cheese over the pie filling, gently smoothing it out.

Step 8

Sprinkle with a couple tablespoons of the graham cracker crumbs & serve.
