Cherry Cream Cheese Pie is a recipe that my family would make quite often. My Dad would always request it for his birthday or around the Holidays and this recipe always reminds me of him. He loved it. Cherry Cream Cheese Pie comes right off the back of the Eagle Brand condensed milk can. I have to laugh whenever I make this pie and try to take a picture of it. It is not a very picture worthy pie but it is damn good! You can see that in my pictures and video.
Some tips for making this pie
Use room temperature cream cheese and beat that first. Do not mix in the milk and other ingredients right away. If you don't do that the pie will be full of cream cheese chunks. Do not leave out the lemon juice, lemon juice helps the cake set!
Weight Watcher Friendly
To make this pie more WW friendly use FF cream cheese, a can of FF condensed milk, reduced fat graham cracker pie crust, and a can of light cherry pie filling.
