Sometimes the simplest things are the best. This pie is just that. The combination of the crust, creamy filling and cherry topping is pretty close to perfect.
Mix the graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar and butter together.
Press the crumbs into the pie pan and bake for 9-10 minutes. Cool completely before filling.
Whip the cream. In a separate bowl mix the cream cheese and powdered sugar.
Gently fold together.
Spread the filling into the cooled pie crust.
Top it all with cherry pie filling.
Beautiful and delicious! Enjoy!
