Usually used as a Thanksgiving dessert

Ingredients

• 2 eggs
• 2 pks softened cream cheese
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 can of cherries
• Box of vanilla wafers or crushed graham crackers
• (If using crushed graham crackers, must add a little butter & sugar so it can be a firm base.)

Preparation

Step 1

Combine the eggs, cream cheese, sugar and vanilla. Mix until smooth.

Place 18 vanilla wafers on bottom of cupcake holders, place in muffin pan. Watch carefully, @15 minutes at 350 degrees, take out when still light on top (they look soft but they settle, if they get brownish they are overcooked).

Once cooled, garnish with canned cherries.
