Recipe For No Bake Cherry Cheesecake
1.5 Cups of Graham Cracker Crumbs
1/2 cup of Melted Margarine
16oz Cream Chees
1 cup Icing Sugar
1 envelope of Dream Whip
1 tin of Cherry Pie Filling
Mix Margarine and Graham Crackers together and press firmly in the bottom of a 9×13 baking dish. Prepare 1 envelope of dream whip as per package directions. Combine softened cream cheese with dream whip and icing sugar. Layer the Dream Whip/Cream Cheese mix over the Graham Cracker Base. Pour the tinned cherries on top. We put it in the fridge to set but Nana Pat said you do not have to do that
*** Recipe notes-I think you need more graham crackers and margarine for a 9×13 pan (Nana Pat said this amount in the recipe was for an 8×8 pan but the Dream Whip/Cream Cheese layer makes enough for 9×13 pan. Also if you are doing 9×13 pan I would suggest 2 tins of cherries.
