How to Make Chocolate Cherry Pie Bliss

Quick Overview

This pie is quick, easy, and no-bake—just 20 minutes of prep followed by chill time. It’s ideal for both beginner bakers and anyone who wants a fast, foolproof dessert with that “wow” factor.

Ingredients

  • 1 chocolate pie crust

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened

  • 1 cup cherries, pitted and sliced

  • 1 cup Cool Whip

  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • Chocolate shavings or syrup, for garnish

Step-by-Step Instructions

  1. Prep the Crust
    Place your chocolate pie crust in a 9-inch pie pan. If pre-baking is required (check the package), follow those instructions and allow it to cool completely.

  2. Make the Creamy Filling
    In a medium bowl, use a hand mixer to beat together the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Then fold in the Cool Whip gently to maintain the fluffy texture.

  3. Flavor Boost
    Stir in the vanilla extract until everything is evenly combined.

  4. Layer It Up
    Spread half of the cream mixture into the crust, then top with half of the cherries. Repeat with the remaining cream and cherries for a beautifully layered effect.

  5. Chill to Set
    Cover the pie and refrigerate for at least 2 hours so the filling sets to the perfect consistency.

  6. Garnish and Serve
    Just before serving, add a generous sprinkle of chocolate shavings or a drizzle of chocolate syrup. Slice and enjoy!

What to Serve with Chocolate Cherry Pie Bliss

Pair your slice with:

  • A scoop of vanilla ice cream for extra indulgence

  • Fresh whipped cream and mint leaves for garnish

  • Iced coffee, espresso, or hot tea to balance the sweetness

  • Or go classic with a cold glass of milk

It’s a dessert that plays well with just about anything, making it versatile for any mood or meal.

Top Tips for Perfecting Chocolate Cherry Pie Bliss

  • Use Room-Temperature Cream Cheese
    This helps avoid lumps in your filling for that ultra-smooth, dreamy texture.

  • Frozen Cherries? No Problem!
    Just thaw and drain well before using so your pie doesn’t get soggy.

  • Crust Choices Matter
    No chocolate crust? A graham cracker crust or even Oreo cookie crust works wonderfully too.

  • Make Ahead
    This pie tastes even better after a night in the fridge—flavors meld and the texture is just right!

Storing and Reheating Tips

  • Refrigerate: Store leftovers in the fridge in a sealed container. Best enjoyed within 3 days.

  • Freeze: Freeze without the garnishes for up to 1 month. Wrap tightly in plastic and foil. Thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.

  • Reheating? Not necessary—this pie is served chilled!

FAQs

Can I use different fruit?
Yes! Strawberries, raspberries, or blueberries work great. Just make sure to drain excess liquid if using frozen fruit.

Can I make it less sweet?
Definitely. Feel free to adjust the powdered sugar to your taste—start with 1/4 cup and build from there.

Is this pie gluten-free?
It can be! Just be sure to use a gluten-free pie crust and check labels on the Cool Whip and other ingredients.

Conclusion

Chocolate Cherry Pie Bliss is your shortcut to a rich, creamy, no-bake dessert that delivers elegance and ease in every bite. Whether you’re making it for a family gathering, holiday party, or just a self-care treat, this pie hits all the right notes.
