Ingredients
  • 21 ounce Cherry pie filling

  3. 3
    In a medium bowl, whisk together the cherry pie filling and cornstarch until fully combined and smooth.
  4. 4
    Pour the cherry mixture evenly into the crust, spreading it to the edges.

  6. 6
    Pour the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cherry layer in the pie crust.

  10. 10
    Cover the pie and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to set firmly before slicing.
