This recipe for a Cherry Cheese Cake came from a friend of mine. It is not a cooked cheese cake. I love it. You can put whatever fruit you like on top. I like the cherry the best.
Sharon's Cheese Cake
Base:
1 1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup melted butter
1/4 cup sugar
Mix all ingredients together. Reserve about 1/4 cup to sprinkle on top. With the remaining press into 9 X 13 baking pan. Set aside.
Filling:
1 large cream cheese
1/4 cup sugar
1 pkg. dream whip, made according to directions
(I use cool whip small container or about 1/2 a large one.)
I can cherry pie fill
Directions:
Cream 1/4 cup sugar and cream cheese together until smooth. If you use dream whip, prepare as directed and fold into cream cheese mixture. With the cool whip you also will fold into cheese mixture. I have made it both ways and like both. Then top with cherry pie fill and sprinkle with reserved crumb crust. Set in frig to chill and serve. This is a very nice summer dessert.

Yummy, I like the idea of using Cool Whip rather than Dream Whip.
Rosemary....it tastes great either way..but I like the cool whip...now you could add real whipped cream to it... hmmm I wonder how that would be....
Thanks for the comment... :)
Now isn't this just one of the most perfect desserts for a hot summer day! Can't tell you when I wanted something sweet in July and August but didn't want to turn the oven on. Perfect!
