Ingredients
 

For the Crust

  • 2 cups graham crackers or digestive biscuits, crushed
  • 2 tbsp sugar
  • 8 tbsp butter (salted), melted

For the Cheesecake

  • 8 oz each of 2 packs of Philadelphia cream cheese, softened at room temperature
  • 14 oz can of condensed milk
  • 2 tbsp fresh lemon juice
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract

FOR THE TOPPING

  • 12.5 oz can cherry pie filling, (or other pie filling of your choice)

Instructions
 

For the Crust

  • To make the crust, combine all the ingredients in a bowl and mix until evenly moistened. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and side of a greased 9-inch springform pan using the smooth bottom of a glass. Make sure it’s evenly spread out. Set aside in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to chill as you make the filling.

For the Cheesecake

  • Using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese in medium speed until soft, creamy and completely smooth (no lumps).
  • Add the condensed milk slowly and continue to beat until the mixture is smooth. Occasionally scrape the sides of the mixing bowl to ensure that there are no lumps remaining on the side or at the bottom.
  • Pour in the lemon juice and vanilla extract and beat again until just until combined.
  • Pour the filling into the crust and refrigerate overnight or until fully set. This can be made 1-2 days ahead.
  • Just before serving drizzle some of the cherry pie filling for topping.

Notes

TIPS & TRICKS
If you're press for time, use a pre-made graham cracker crust.
Before using the cherry pie filling, chill the can in the fridge for at least an hour. This will ensure the filling won't be so liquidy when you use it.
