- – 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- – 1 cup powdered sugar
- – 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- – 1 container (8 oz) whipped topping, thawed
- – 1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling
- – 2 cups mini marshmallows
- – 1 cup graham cracker crumbs (for optional topping)
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth.
- Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the bowl, and continue mixing until fully combined and creamy.
- Gently fold in the whipped topping and mini marshmallows using a spatula until evenly distributed.
- Spoon the cherry pie filling into the mixture and fold it in lightly to create swirls, avoiding over-mixing for a marbled effect.
- Transfer the mixture to a serving dish or individual cups, and sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs if desired.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to set before serving.
Notes
- – For a fruity twist, substitute the cherry pie filling with blueberry or strawberry for different seasonal flavors.
- – Add a handful of mini chocolate chips to the mixture for a richer, chocolate-cherry variation.
- – Serve in festive holiday glasses topped with fresh cherries or a dollop of extra whipped topping for an elegant presentation.
