This recipe makes a creamy pie filling with just a hint of tart to balance out the sweet cherry topping. Ingredients 2 sleeves Trader Joe's™ Jo-Jo or Oreo™ brand cookies with middles
1/4 cup melted butter
8 ounce cream cheese
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1/3 cup lemon juice
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 can cherry pie fillingDirectionsCrush cookies in a food processor or smash them in a zip top plastic bag. Mix with the melted butter and press into an 8 inch pie pan or other pan of similar size. Do not push too hard while pressing the crust into the pan so it remains easy to eat with a fork. For best results chill the crust for about thirty minutes before filling. Beat cream cheese until softened, add the sweetened condensed milk, lemon juice and vanilla and blend well. Pour into chilled crust and chill for three to four hours in the refrigerator until firm enough to cut. Top with the cherry pie filling and serve. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to three days. Serves: 6 Share this
