- 1 (8 oz) container whipped topping (or 1 cup heavy cream, whipped)
- 1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling
Instructions
- Make the Crust: In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a baking dish to form the crust.

- For a homemade touch, make your own pie filling or whipped cream.

- If desired, sprinkle crushed graham crackers or chopped nuts over the top for added texture.
