Cherry cream pie. A combination of cherry pie, cherry cheesecake and cherry delight all in one. It. is. so. good!
I love today's recipe. It's basically a combination of a few my favorite desserts all rolled into one. The graham cracker crust is the perfect choice for this type of pie. Unless, you always prefer a pastry crust then you can use that instead. I have a recipe for one here.
This dessert's proper name should probably be something like Creamy Cheery Delight Pie but that's a mouthful! lol.
What's your favorite dessert? Do you like a basic fruit pie? Are you a cheesecake lover? More often than not I gravitate towards chocolate unless there is something like this on the dessert table. 🙂

I make a pie very similar to this and it taste even better after sitting in the fridge overnight!
