Ingredients

Cherry Cheesecake Pie

Active Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 1 hour 25 minutes

INGREDIENTS

1 box (15 oz) refrigerated ready-to-bake pie crusts

1/2 cup sugar

1 Tbsp cornstarch

2 bricks (8 oz each) 1/3-less-fat cream cheese (Neufchâtel), softened

1 large egg

1/2 tsp almond extract

1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling

White from 1 large egg, in a small bowl

1/3 cup sliced almonds

Directions

PREPARATION

1. Heat oven to 350°F. Have ready a 9-in. pie plate.

2. Fit 1 crust into pie plate. Unroll or unfold remaining crust on a cutting board; cut in 1/2-in.-wide strips. Cover with plastic wrap; refrigerate.

3. Mix sugar and cornstarch in a medium bowl. Add cream cheese; beat with mixer on medium speed until smooth. On low speed, beat in egg and extract until just blended.

4. Spread batter evenly in crust; spoon pie filling evenly over top. Beat egg white with a fork until foamy. Brush on pastry strips. Arrange about 8 strips evenly spaced across pie filing. Place 8 more strips diagonally over first strips to form a lattice (discard remaining strips). Trim and press ends to bottom crust. Brush rim with egg white; press on almonds.

5. Bake 50 to 60 minutes until crust is golden brown and cherries bubble. Remove to a wire rack to cool. Serve warm, at room temperature or cold.

Planning Tip: Can be baked up to 4 days ahead. Refrigerate covered.

What a wonderful recipe you get the crispy flaky crust and a moist cherry topped cheese cake all in one.

I've never seen this before, love the sound of it...I agree with Trigger; flaky crust, cherry/cheesecake all in one. Thanks for a great post!
