OPAL'S CHERRY DELIGHT RECIPE



OPAL'S CHERRY DELIGHT Recipe image

Provided by babygirl36

Number Of Ingredients 7

40 graham crackers, finely crushed
1 cup confectioners sugar
1/2 cup butter, melted
16 oz. cream cheese, softened
16 oz. cool whip
2 cup confectioners sugar
2 (12 oz) cherry pie filling

Steps:

  • Mix graham cracker crumbs, 1 cup confectioners sugar and butter together in a bowl; press into a 9x13 pan. Whisk cream cheese, cool whip and 2 cups confectioners sugar together in a bowl until smooth; spread over graham cracker crust. Pour cherry pie filling over cream cheese layer. Refrigerate until firm, at least an hour.

Tips:

  • Use fresh cherries: Fresh cherries are bursting with flavor and will give your Cherry Surprise an irresistibly sweet and tart flavor.
  • Pit the cherries: Be sure to pit the cherries before using them in your Cherry Surprise. This will help to prevent the pits from creating a choking hazard.
  • Use a variety of nuts: The original recipe calls for walnuts, but you can use any type of nuts you like, such as pecans, almonds, or hazelnuts.
  • Don't overcook the cherries: The cherries should be cooked until they are tender, but not mushy. Overcooking the cherries will make them lose their flavor.
  • Serve warm or cold: Cherry Surprise can be served warm or cold. If you are serving it warm, be sure to let it cool slightly before serving so that the filling doesn't run out.

Conclusion:

Opal's Cherry Surprise is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of sweet cherries, crunchy nuts, and creamy whipped cream is sure to please everyone. So next time you are looking for a special dessert to make, be sure to give Opal's Cherry Surprise a try.
