Foodie Friday - Cherry Cheesecake

On Tuesday, I shared one of my favorite cheesecake recipes with you and suggested it as a Valentine's Day treat. Since I know that not everyone likes coconut and chocolate, I wanted to share a more traditional cheesecake recipe with you. What could be more festive for Valentine's Day than a super easy and super delicious Cherry Cheesecake?

Cherry Cheesecake
Crust:
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 pound butter, melted
1/2 cup sugar

Filling:
6 eggs, room temperature
2 cups sugar
2- 8oz. packages cream cheese, softened
1 can cherry pie filling

Mix all crust ingredients together. Lightly pack in the bottom of a spring form pan. Set aside. Beat eggs; add sugar slowly, then blend in cream cheese. Pour over crust. Bake at 375 degrees until lightly browned on top, about 35 minutes. Cool. Pour pie filling over the top of the cake and refrigerate.

Enjoy!!
