Maraschino Cherry Cheesecake

If you love Maraschino cherries, you will love this recipe.

What you will need:

1 tsp of banana extract

1 cup of maraschino cherries, cherries cut in half

12 0z of cream cheese

¾ cup of sugar3 eggs (medium) or 2 eggs (large)

1 graham cracker pie crust

Directions:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees.

Combine sugar and cream cheese in bowl and blend with hand mixer.

Adding one egg at a time, add each egg thoroughly blending until batter is smooth.

Add cherries (after they are cut in half) to mixture and stir with a spoon.

Pour cherry batter into pie crust and spread to sides if needed.

Bake for 40-45 minutes until middle is spongy.

Refrigerate for 12 hours (allow pie to cool down before refrigerating to prevent cracking.)

I like to use real fruit whenever I can. Feel free to try out different combinations. You never know what you might like.
