0:00
- You gonna be so happy
0:01
'cause you know what you're gonna have to eat?
0:04
- I'm gonna say a pie.
0:06
- [Paula] Two pies, two pies.
0:09
- Earlier, I made a ice cream, cherry ice cream pie
0:14
and now I'm walking down memory lane, y'all
0:20
and Theresa is gonna talk us through it
0:23
because she wanted us to make this recipe
0:25
with Labor Day coming up because it's so easy and so good.
0:30
And yesterday, Claudia was telling me
0:33
that the triplets had homework over the summer.
0:36
They had, was assigned three things that they needed to do.
0:40
And yesterday, Millie's homework
0:46
was to make some, cook something
0:50
so she made banana muffins
0:52
and I had one and they were delicious.
0:55
But if you've got a child or a grandchild
0:58
that has homework like that,
1:00
this would be a great one for them to do
1:04
because it's so simple.
1:07
We're using a ready-made pie crust.
1:11
We've got eight ounces of cream cheese.
1:14
So tell me all about it, Theresa.
1:16
- [Theresa] Oh my lord.
1:17
This recipe has been around for a million years.
1:20
- And I used to make,
1:22
this is the only thing I ever knew how to make
1:24
and I had these ingredients in our house all the time.
1:29
And then when I got to college
1:30
and you wanted to impress your friends,
1:32
you would make a dessert
1:34
and this was the only dessert I knew how to make.
1:36
And so when I saw that they had requested
1:38
that we make this for Labor Day, I was like,
1:40
oh my gosh, this is really how we lived.
1:42
- I'm telling you and if you,
1:47
if you like cheesecake, this is an easy, easy answer
1:53
to get you some cheesecake.
1:55
Now, all I'm doing is I'm beating my cream cheese
1:58
until it's nice and soft and creamy
2:04
and this thing is getting on my last nerve.
2:17
All right, now we're gonna stir in
2:20
our sweetened condensed milk
2:25
and this will about take anything
2:27
to close spot in heaven, won't it?
2:32
It's like the best stuff.
2:37
In fact, I've known people that ate it out of the can
2:39
with a spoon and I do like it too
2:44
but not quite enough to do that.
2:50
So we're just gonna stir that in.
3:00
I think I'm gonna go back to our mixer.
3:11
And then I'm gonna stir in my lemon juice.
3:36
Ooh, this lemon juice is just gonna brighten it up.
3:42
Brighten it up so good.
3:45
Okey-doke, that's it.
3:47
I'm just gonna put our filling into our crust.
3:51
I'm gonna put it in the refrigerator
3:53
and let it sit and firm up for a few minutes
3:56
and then I'm going to top it with our cherry pie filling.
4:00
Now, you can make this pie using blueberry pie filling,
4:06
cherry pie filling, whatever your favorite is
4:10
but the cherry is just so pretty and does taste so good.
4:16
I forgot to put my vanilla flavoring in it, y'all
4:21
so I'm gonna just kinda stir, calls for half a teaspoon.
4:28
So I'm just gonna just blend that in just like that
4:41
without disturbing the crust.
4:46
Kinda just make sure it's spread as evenly as I can get it.
4:55
Okay, so in the refrigerator this goes
4:59
until it firms up a little bit which won't take long.
5:10
Alrighty, y'all ready to finish up this
5:15
cherry cream cheese pie?
5:19
All right, now there's a couple ways you can do this
5:23
and it's really your preference.
5:25
You can just go around the edge like this
5:36
or you can just put it over the whole pie.
5:41
- [Eddie] Labor Day kind of starts pie season.
5:46
- [Eddie] I don't know, holidays.
5:49
- Oh yeah, you're talking about just holidays in general.
5:53
So look how pretty that is.
6:10
so I know she's crying that she's not here
6:15
but she will be back tomorrow for her pie.
6:30
I always don't like getting that first piece out.
6:40
That's not bad, y'all.
6:46
I'm getting this all over me.
6:49
It has been so long since I made one of these
6:52
but I remember girls making this when I was a new mother.
7:05
And it's still so dadgum good and so easy.
7:13
The lemon juice just brings it right on up.
7:20
Now, I'm gonna get this back in the refrigerator
7:24
so it can finish chilling
7:26
but not before I eat those last two cherries, y'all.
7:32
and thanks for walking down memory lane with me.
7:39
