How to Make Almond Crusted Cherry Cream Pie

  1. Prepare pie crust (using recipe #51537 or a store-bought crust). If making your own, add 1/2 cup chopped almonds to the dry ingredients before adding water.
  2. Gently prick only the sides of the pie crust with a fork to prevent bubbling. Bake according to crust recipe instructions.
  3. Let the crust cool completely on a wire rack.
  4. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk, 2 tablespoons lemon juice, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and 1/2 teaspoon almond extract.
  5. Gently fold in 2 cups whipped cream. Pour the mixture into the cooled pie crust.
  6. Spread 1 (21-ounce) can cherry pie filling evenly over the cream filling.
  7. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow flavors to meld and the pie to set completely.
  8. Serve chilled and enjoy!
