How to: Make an Easy Cheesecake
I made this cheesecake over the weekend with a crushed oreo cookie crust. It was delicious. I say was because we have pretty much eaten the entire thing and it’s only Tuesday. For some reason nibbling all those bites with the refrigerator door open have added up. I blame it on the fact that eating an entire pie that way doesn’t feel as bad as serving up a whole piece!
Easy Cherry Cheesecake Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 prepared Oreo Cookie Crust (graham cracker crust also works)
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 (9 ounce) container frozen dessert topping (Cool Whip)
- 1 (19 ounce) can cherry pie filling (Comstock)
Directions
- Blend cream cheese and sugar.
- Fold in frozen dessert topping.
- Press the mixture into crust, spreading up the sides. Leave room for the cherries or it will overflow.
- Pour cherry pie filling on top. (You can use any fruit filling.)
- Refrigerate for at least 3 hours. (Note: It doesn’t get as hard as normal cheesecake.)
- Enjoy!
To reduce calories use light coolwhip and cream cheese.
