Ok, hear me out here.  I am a firm believer that cheesecake should be a food group all on its own.   Think about it, in this case, combining classic graham cracker crust and rich creamy filling with a delicious cherry topping makes this a delicious dessert.  What more could you want?

Now that you see how passionate I am about this dessert, you can understand why when National Cherry Cheesecake Day came around that I was the one that was called to make the recipe.  This is a silky smooth cheesecake topped sky-high with gorgeous plump red cherries. This ultimate cherry cheesecake is completely made from scratch and is very easy to make. This cheesecake recipe is one that I often bring to family functions. it's easy but leaves everyone wanting more. So if you're looking for a fantastic dessert to make this weekend (or even tonight) you've found it!
