Cherry Cheesecake Recipe

When I worked full-time and needed a quick dessert to take to a potluck or a friend's home, this pie was always the answer. You can substitute a graham cracker crust or use another type of fruit pie filling for a change of pace. Even the chilling time is flexible if you're in a big hurry. -Mary Smith Bradenton, Florida

great recipe, will be great to make this summer as it does not have to be baked. I do not add a topping until it is served, that way you can add anything from blackberrie or strawberry sauce.
