When I was a kid, I remember my Granny would always prepare us a delicious dessert filled with yummy cherries and pineapple, it was so creamy and fruity that we would always look forward to it whenever we visit. It remained one of my favorite sweets up to the present, the only difference now is that I get to prepare it myself, and my go-to recipe is this one by Catherine’s Plates on YouTube. Try this one too and see for yourself!
Ingredients:
- 1 graham cracker pie crust, prepared
- 1 (14-ounce) can of sweetened condensed milk
- 1 (8-ounce) package of cream cheese, softened to room temperature
- 3 tbsp of lemon juice
- 1½ cups of cool whip
- ½ cup of chopped pecans
- 1 jar of maraschino cherries, drained, dried off, and chopped
- 2 (8-ounce) cans of crushed pineapple
Directions:
Step 1
Strain the pineapple, then squeeze out all of the juices, and save them for whatever you want them for. Drain the maraschino cherries, then dry them off, and chop them into small pieces. In a large mixing bowl, add the cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk, then beat them together using a hand mixer until nice and combined, add the cool whip and lemon juice, and then continue mixing until incorporated.

Add the chopped pecans, cherries, and pineapples, then fold them together until incorporated and combined, and then pour it all into a prepared graham cracker crust.
