No Bake Cherry Cheesecake Dip

I like to make things as easy as humanly possible. With 3 kids it can get a bit hectic especially during the holidays. Going so far as to have my sister in law ask me to bring it year after year, I knew after that season it was a hit. 

You could crush vanilla wafers up and blend with some melted butter to make a crust too like we did with our cheesecake in muffin tins. OR just keep them whole and serve on the side for dipping.

Ingredients

1. Graham cracker crust for cheesecake is used for this one
   1. or just put straight into a baking dish / pie plate without a graham cracker crust
2. Topped with cherry pie filling, or use any flavor you’d like
3. Jar of marshmallow fluff
4. Cream cheese softened so it becomes smooth
5. Cool whip thawed in the tub overnight
6. Dippers to dunk into it would be;
   1. serve with graham crackers
   2. sliced apples
   3. wafer cookies

Can you make your own graham cracker crust?

If you want to make your own graham cracker crust you just need melted butter and smashed graham crackers. Just mix enough melted butter so the crumbs are damp enough to press into your pie pan so they stick to the sides.

Can you use any flavor of pie filling?

For sure, that would be a cheap and easy way to mix things up. Make a few each with a different flavor but with the same dippers on the side to serve them with.

How to Make Philadelphia Cheesecake Dip

I’m all about inexpensive so store brand everything is just fine! When you’re ready to make it leave the cream cheese block on the counter for about an hour so it gets closer to room temperature. That will make it easier to make the creamy cheesecake mixture.

If it is still a bit cold you may need a bit of medium high speed but just until smooth. It won’t look pretty if it’s lumpy. Then be sure to gently fold in the whipped topping. You want it light and fluffy so put away your mixer for this last step.

Alternatively you can just serve this in a round serving dish, or double it and put it in a 13×9 glass pan. Up to you. We love this dip either way it’s served. You can make homemade cherry pie filling too.

Once you have the marshmallow creme and cream cheese as creamy as possible just spoon it in. Spoon the cherry pie filling (or any other flavor) on top of that….you’re done!! Just break apart the graham crackers and use those to dip!

You can make it as you see here or if you want individual servings you can make the filling and then spoon it into little ramekins with a few graham cracker pieces stuck out of it. Then people can pick one up and roam around.

It’s just as easy as when we make our pumpkin cream cheese dip served mostly during the holidays. If you have a bigger get together I would make a few choices for everyone with the “dippers” in the middle of all of them.

If you want something sweet a few ingredient recipe is always a bonus. Looking for other Christmas brunch menu ideas? I have a few others that use some of the same ingredients and/or pair well with this one. It is fun to have some sort of a theme at times.
