Method
Preparation
- In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar, and cinnamon until well combined.
- Pour the mixture into an 8-inch springform pan. Press it firmly down and up the sides about 1 inch. Place the pan in the freezer for 15 minutes to set the crust.
Filling
- In a large bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream on high for 3-4 minutes until soft peaks form. Set this aside.
- In another large bowl, add softened cream cheese and sugar. Using a hand or stand mixer, beat until creamy.
- Add in lemon juice, sour cream, and vanilla. Mix gently until just combined to avoid overmixing.
- Carefully fold in the whipped cream until everything is combined. Then, spread this mixture into the springform pan and level it out with a spatula.
Chilling and Serving
- Chill in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight for the best results.
- Once chilled, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan. Top with Cool Whip and drizzle with cherry pie filling before serving.

Notes
Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature for a smooth mix. Don’t rush the chilling process; letting it sit overnight enhances the flavors. For a thicker crust, increase the graham cracker crumbs slightly. Experiment with different toppings, like fresh fruit or chocolate sauce!
