How To make Fresh Cherry Pie with a Buttery Cream Cheese Crust
CRUST:
1 c Unsalted butter; soft
4 oz Cream cheese; soft
2 1/2 c All purpose flour
1 ts Cinnamon
FILLING:
3 c Fresh pitted cherries
2 1/2 tb Minute tapioca
1/8 ts Salt
6 tb Granulated sugar
1/4 ts Almond extract
Cream together butter and cream cheese with mixer until thoroughly blended. Using a pastry blender, cut in flour til it looks like it may hold together if you squeezed some or it into a ball. Stop. It's done. (If you overmix, it will be tough). Chill well. When chilled, cut in half, using one half of the dough to pat into a 9 inch glass pie dish. Chill again. Filling: Combine all the ingredients for the filling and let stand for 30 minutes stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, take reserved dough and place between 2 sheets of waxed paper. Roll out large enough for top crust. Pour cherry filling into pie dish and top with rolled crust. Make attractive slits and bake at 400 degrees for about 40 minutes.

Filling:
Ingredients:
1 - 9 inch graham cracker crust – homemade or purchased
1 – 8 ounce package of cream cheese, softened (leave it on the counter for at least 30 minutes – but no longer than 1 hour. Poke it with your finger to test for softness.)
1 – 14 ounce can of sweetened condensed milk – (IMPORTANT - NOT plain evaporated milk)
lemon juice – I used bottled lemon juice (you can also use lime juice for a “Key Lime” flavored pie)
vanilla extract
1 can of pie filling, chilled in the refrigerator for a few hours (the Grandma recipe calls for cherry pie filling but blueberry and strawberry are good as well. Plain whipped cream is good with the lime juice version.)
