Cherry Breeze

Ahh, Cherry Breeze.  David's family makes this delight for birthday celebrations.  It is just YUM.  I don't even like cherry pie filling.  Not really at all.  However, I do like cherry breeze.  It is simple, yet delicious.

Ingredients:
- 1 graham cracker crust
- 1 pkg (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 c. lemon juice
- 2 tsp vanilla extract (try to use real if you can)
- 1 can cherry pie filling

First whip the cream cheese into submission, to make sure it is smooth.  Then add the sweetened condensed milk and whip again.  Now add the lemon juice and vanilla.
Beat this mixture until you are certain that it is well combined and smooth.  No cream cheese chunks, this would be bad.

Now spread it into the graham cracker crust.  I prefer to make it in the jumbo crust, but the store ran out, and I didn't feel like making one.  We make do.

Cover and refridgerate.  Once it has set, and set well, you may add the can of cherries to the top and enjoy!  I refridgerated mine overnight, but 2-4 hours also works.


Thi final product...scrumptious!
Happy eating!
