Ingredients
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted
Three 4 oz. packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
2 tbsp milk
1 cup chopped pecans
1 cup heavy whipping cream
2 tbsp powdered sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 cans cherry pie filling
Instructions
- Make the Crust: Combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter in a bowl, mixing until fully blended. Firmly press the mixture into a 9×13-inch glass or porcelain dish. Place in the freezer for 10-15 minutes to firm up.
- Prepare the Cheesecake Layer: In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and milk until smooth and fluffy. Spread evenly over the chilled crust.
- Add the Nutty Texture: Evenly distribute the chopped pecans over the cheesecake layer to add a delightful crunch.
- Create the Whipped Layer: In a clean bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla until it reaches stiff peaks. Spread this creamy layer over the pecans.
- Add the Cherry Topping: Spoon the cherry pie filling over the whipped layer, spreading it gently for even coverage.
- Chill and Enjoy: Cover and refrigerate overnight to let the layers set and flavors blend. Serve cold, optionally topped with more whipped cream.
Notes
Use full-fat cream cheese for best results.
You can substitute cherry pie filling with blueberry or raspberry for variety.
Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
For a nut-free version, omit the pecans or replace with mini chocolate chips.
