This easy to prepare recipe makes two pies, enough for two occasions or one large party. I found this recipe at Tops Market courtesy of National Cherry Growers. I have not tried this recipe, but I'm posting it for safe keeping. I plan to use homemade sweetened condensed milk and sugar free Cool Whip. Ingredients:
16 ounces frozen sweet cherries (1 3/4 cup) |
8 ounces cream cheese, softened |
14 ounces sweetened condensed milk |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1/4 teaspoon almond extract |
8 ounces frozen whipped topping, thawed |
1 (9 inch) chocolate crumb crusts |
Directions:
1. Chop cherries while frozen. Keep frozen until ready to use.
2. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Gradually add sweetened condensed milk; mix well. Add chopped cherries, lemon juice and almond extract; stir just until combined. Fold in whipped topping.
3. Pour cherry mixture evenly into pie crusts. Freeze 8 hours or overnight. Cut into serving size pieces.
4. Garnish as desired. Serve immediately; pie slices thaw quickly. Store leftovers, covered, in freezer.
