Description
Cherry Cheesecake Fluff is a creamy, fluffy, and sweet dessert with a refreshing cherry topping. It combines the rich taste of cheesecake with a light, airy texture and a bit of crunch from graham cracker crumbs.
Ingredients
1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1 container (8 oz) whipped topping
1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling
1 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs (optional for topping)
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
- Add in the vanilla extract and mix until fully combined.
- Gently fold in the whipped topping until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Carefully stir in the cherry pie filling, keeping some of the cherries whole for added texture.
- Transfer the fluff into a serving bowl or individual cups. Optionally, sprinkle graham cracker crumbs on top for a bit of crunch.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
Notes
For a different flavor, you can swap cherry pie filling with other fruit pie fillings like blueberry, strawberry, or mixed berry.
Adding chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts gives a nice texture contrast.
Flavored whipped topping can be used to enhance the dessert's flavor, such as vanilla bean or strawberry whipped topping.
