Cherry Yum Yum

While entering a contest this last week, I was asked about my favorite dessert. I decided I would share this wonderfully easy cool summertime treat .


Cherry Yum Yum

1 pkg instant white chocolate Jello pudding
1 pkg instant cheesecake Jello pudding
1 medium container Cool Whip
2 to 3 cans cherry pie filling
Graham cracker crumbs

Put graham cracker crumbs in bottom of container. I use a 9 X 13 glass casserole dish. Mix both boxes of pudding according to directions on box. I do this in one big bowl. (Be sure you double the milk as there are two boxes.) Mix half the container of Cool Whip in the pudding. Place a layer of cherry pie filling on graham cracker crumbs, then a layer of
pudding mixture. Repeat layering ending with left over Cool Whip on top. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. I often will substitute blueberry pie filling for 1 can of cherry and will put cherry on one end and blueberry on the other. This also makes a great red, white and blue dessert for the 4th.  
Oh, and if you don't like fruit, I will also use the basic recipe and use broken up Oreo cookies (leave out the Graham cracker crumbs too) in place of the pie fillings. The kids and hubby love it. Really a quick and easy dessert, one I fix often in the summer.

  1. This sounds really tasty right now! I am printing it out to make tomorrow after I go grocery shopping. I love dessert! Eat dessert first should be a rule of thumb.
