Dessert #1: Cherry Pie Casserole
This dessert is so easy to make! I know I recently posted a recipe and said that I try to make everything from scratch here. Well…I sort of cheated this time! You could easily turn this into a from scratch recipe but I had all the ingredients to make this in less time with less effort so I went for it.

Here’s what you need:
- 2 cans of crescent roll dough (pie dough would work as well)
- 21 ounce can of cherry pie filling
- 8 ounce block of softened cream cheese
- 1 cup of sugar
Instructions
1. Pre-heat oven to 350 degrees and grease a 9×13 casserole dish.
2. In a bowl or stand mixer, combine pie filling, cream cheese, and sugar. Mix together until creamy and well incorporated.
3. In a greased 9×13 pan press one can of crescent roll or pie dough in the bottom and sides. If you are using crescent dough you will need to pinch the creases together first.
4. Add the fruit mixture to the pan.
5. Top with the second can of dough. OPTIONAL: Sprinkle the top with extra sugar.
6. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown.
Best served warm with vanilla bean ice cream!
