Method
- Crush the chocolate sandwich cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or a rolling pin. Mix the crumbs with the melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Freeze for 10-15 minutes.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Beat in the powdered sugar, then mix in the melted chocolate and vanilla extract until smooth. Gently fold in the whipped topping.
- Spoon the chocolate filling into the chilled crust and spread evenly. Top with the cherry pie filling.
- Cover the pie and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until firm. Slice and serve chilled.
Notes
Ensure your cream cheese is fully softened to avoid a lumpy filling.
Let the melted chocolate cool slightly before adding it to the cream cheese mixture to prevent it from seizing.
For the cleanest slices, chill the pie overnight.
