Too bad you don’t see your beloved mother as a human being! But, you of course are a macho player, with ego to match😡😡😡😡😡😡

[@barbarajeanbraceletlady3090]

I use to make this many years ago, to bring to work. I used Neufchâtel cream cheese because many were on diets. Thank you for reminding me of this long forgotten recipe.

[@dadyarusski4594]

I love it. A friend of my brought “cherry delight” to a potluck, and she laughed at me because I had never heard of it, but I thought the dessert was wonderful. So I decided to research this dessert by going to the best chefs in America, our Moms. And, that’s how I found this channel. I am going to get the ingredients and watch Greg’s mom again to help me put it together 😊

[@WillowsGarden]

Hi Mama Vera and Greg! Oh yum, I love cherry anything. This would be a good desert for Easter and easy too. I love to get church cookbooks and over the years, I’ve accumulated several and so many good recipes and old time recipes. I live in Tennessee too, it’s beautiful here. Thanks for sharing and have a blessed day!!

[@gregscumberlachiakitchen]

I love old church cookbooks. They always have the best recipes. What part of Tennessee are you in? I am moving to Knoxville area in May.

[@WillowsGarden]

@@gregscumberlachiakitchen I live in Knox County, I’m so excited you picked our state to move to, it’s a beautiful state with so many places to see and do...kinda like the best of both worlds, lol.

My mother made this for almost every family reunion when I was a kid in the 60's and early 70's.

[@lynnek4226]

Old fashioned recipes are the best recipes! I have this one in my stash that a family member gave me decades ago. Thank you, Vera!

HI MAMA VERA, I HAVE HAD IT BEFORE AT A CHURCH DINNER AND I LOVE IT SO THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR RECIPE NOW I CAN MAKE IT MYSELF. HAVE A BLESSED DAY.

Thank you for sharing your wonderful mother with us. My mom passed away years ago, so it's nice to get the mom recipes and the adorable mom too.

I love this dessert. I’m the girl from Tennessee my Mom made this so many times and it was perfect everytime. Thank you Vera for sharing this recipe. I so enjoy watching the videos of you and Greg!!

[@gregscumberlachiakitchen]

You are so welcome!

[@wandaturner3618]

Hi! I love this recipe. I got this recipe about 30 years ago from my husband's grandmother, from Illinois. I sometimes substitute vanilla flavoring with lemon flavoring for a no bake cheesecake, it is also very good. She called it her mid-western cheesecake. Both recipes are awesome and a big hit anytime.

[@KENTUCKY-MAMA]

I hear that...

[@zoefarrell6743]

My mom made this when I was growing up. We always took it to family gatherings.

[@KENTUCKY-MAMA]

Making this during the weekend with one can each of Blueberries & Cherries. Ur Mama is Gr8.

[@marthaanthis3980]

Good morning, Vera! Thanks so much for sharing this vintage recipe with us! I love cherries!!

[@gregscumberlachiakitchen]

Good morning Martha. I hope you have a great day.

[@Tootleooooooo]

Oh my gosh my mom made this so much. I would eat pounds of it growing up. ..so good! She would do half of the pan blueberry filling and the other half cherry. She also put chopped walnuts in the graham cracker crust🤤

[@debragreen7272]

We too added nuts!

[@KENTUCKY-MAMA]

I would've never thought of that. Gr8 idea walnuts in crust.

[@sharons6290]

This is a great base recipe, I use it with cherry, blueberry, peach, and strawberry pie filling, Try adding about 1/4 tsp of Almond extract per can of cherry pie filling, really brings out the flavor of the cherries., same amount only with lemon juice with the blueberries and add a little cinnamon in the filling with peach filling.

[@gregscumberlachiakitchen]

Sounds great!

[@debragreen7272]

You stole my comment!!! Lol cinnamon makes peaches taste fresh!

[@KENTUCKY-MAMA]

That does sound Gr8. Thanx 4 the ideas.

[@cindycollins2510]

[@terrihartlep8094]

Cherry Delight is probably my favorite dessert. My recipe is from an older woman & friend in my home community years ago. She was expected to bring it for every church event & function. I treasure having Bonnie's recipe & when I was still blessed to be able to celebrate Christmas having my precious family I started making it every year for our Christmas meal. I made one change with the recipe using Chocolate Graham Crackers for the crust & I personally prefer & use Dream Whip instead of Cool Whip.

[@charlotterhodes4667]

I will be making this. Thanks for sharing . God Bless You

[@dianatennant4346]

I love this recipe I switch off pie fillings on the top and it is definitely a family favorite in our family for most all holidays or get togethers. We had a really good wild black raspberry season here one year and my sister-in-law made a thickening basically a pie filling feeling and put it over the top with those and that has been my absolute favorite ever since. Only have had enough berries to make it two or three times that way. Pineapple pie filling was also a favorite of some of my coworkers when I was making this often to take to work they would actually request the pineapple. Kind of surprised me was not one of my favorites but they certainly loved it

[@minniegibson8722]

Would love this but I have not ever seen pineapple pie filling. Could you just use crushed pineapple?

[@dianatennant4346]

@@minniegibson8722 many I think you probably could just use pineapple. To make a pineapple pie filling all you would have to do would be to make a thickening with the juice with a little cornstarch heat it to boiling for the cornstarch to thicken it if you like things very sweet you might want to add a little sugar to it and maybe any spices that you would like in it,. Good luck with it, with the rest of this recipe you don't need much to garnish the top after you said just canned pineapple I immediately thought of just laying pineapple rings on top of there pretty kind of like a pineapple upside down cake and maybe putting some pretty cherries in the middle. Have fun I think you've got this

YAY!! I'm making this over the weekend before I need it for our Thanksgiving dinner. Looks alot easier than another recipe I've been using. Yummy! I also like the fact that it's an old vintage recipe and has lasted as a favorite for many years. Thank you so much for your time and knowledge. Looking forward to seeing other recipes on your site. Have a great day.

[@kathrynwiest792]

Thank you for sharing your Cherry Delight. I will make this for guests on a warm, sunny day. One thing I want to do is, Im not too awful fond of cherries but love the red sauce. So, I am going to blend the two cans to a thin pouring sauce. This way, I have the cherries & the sauce. I'll spread it like you did. Spread the cheese mix, I will set aside a cup & half of the cream cheese mix, place in a baggy, snip the tip off, then dollop mounds on top of the sauce, sprinkle with crushed Graham crackers. I will think of Gregs Mom, who was so patient in teaching me this delightful recipe. I will also remember your senior friend, who is 91, who shared this recipe, making it all the way to Montana. Hope to see you again dear with great recipes. 👍 KW MT. USA 🇺🇸 6-13-23
