Indulge in this decadent Chocolate Cherry Pie Bliss, a no-bake dessert featuring a rich chocolate cookie crust layered with luscious cherry pie filling and a creamy chocolate-cream cheese mixture. Perfectly chilled and topped with optional chocolate shavings and extra cherries, this pie balances tart fruitiness with smooth, velvety chocolate flavors for a delightful treat any time of year.


Ingredients

Scale

Crust and Filling

  • 1 9-inch pre-baked chocolate cookie crust
  • 1 can (21 oz) cherry pie filling
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips, melted

Cream Cheese Mixture

  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Whipped Cream Topping

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar

Optional Toppings

  • Shaved chocolate
  • Extra cherries
  • Whipped cream


Instructions

  1. Prepare the chocolate-cream cheese mixture: In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Stir in the melted semi-sweet chocolate chips thoroughly until the mixture is fully incorporated.
  2. Whip the cream: In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream with granulated sugar until stiff peaks form, indicating the cream is firm and will hold its shape.
  3. Combine the mixtures: Gently fold the whipped cream into the chocolate-cream cheese mixture, taking care to retain the airiness for a light, fluffy texture.
  4. Layer the pie: Spread half of the cherry pie filling evenly onto the bottom of the pre-baked chocolate cookie crust. Carefully spread the folded chocolate cream mixture over the cherries, smoothing the top for an even layer.
  5. Add the final cherry layer: Spoon the remaining cherry pie filling evenly over the chocolate cream layer, ensuring a visually appealing top layer.
  6. Chill and set: Place the assembled pie in the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow it to set firmly and the flavors to meld.
  7. Garnish and serve: Before serving, optionally garnish with shaved chocolate, whipped cream, or extra cherries for an elegant presentation and added texture.

Notes

  • For a richer chocolate flavor, add 2 tablespoons of cocoa powder to the cream cheese filling before folding in the whipped cream.
  • This pie can be frozen for a firmer, ice-cream-like texture; thaw slightly before serving.
