"I have made and enjoyed many a cheesecake but come holidays and special occasions at our house this family favourite is a given. Being freezer friendly it also makes for a great make ahead. When it comes to recipe requests for the most part it comes as a surprise that it's a no bake."
In a large bowl mix the wafer crumbs and melted butter, press into a 9 or 10 inch springform pan (I like using the 10 inch use the 9 inch when wanting thicker slices, I like to bake my wafer crusts for 5 minutes in a pre heated 350 oven, cool before filling
For those who prefer to have their slices without the cherry topping save 1/4 cup of crumbs to sprinkle on top of the cheesecake and serve the cherries on the side.
Mix cream cheese, vanilla and sugar using a hand mixer whip until smooth
Whip cream add in 3 – 4 tablespoons sugar, add to cream cheese mix, whip until smooth and creamy pour into chilled wafer crust
Refrigerate
Top with cherries just before serving
