How to Make Cherry Cheesecake Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Brush the graham cracker crust lightly with beaten egg. Bake for 5 minutes. Let cool completely.
  2. In a large bowl, beat 16 ounces (2 packages) of cream cheese until completely smooth and creamy.
  3. Gradually add 1 cup of granulated sugar, beating until well combined.
  4. Stir in 1 cup sour cream and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  5. Gently fold in 8 ounces of whipped topping (thawed if frozen).
  6. Carefully pour the cheesecake mixture into the cooled crust, ensuring it's evenly distributed.
  7. Top with 1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling.
  8. Cover the pie tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, until completely chilled.
  9. For faster chilling, place the pie in the freezer for 1-2 hours (check frequently to avoid freezing solid).
  10. Serve chilled and enjoy!
