Ingredients

Filling

  • 2 cups cold heavy whipping cream
  • 1 (20 ounce) can cherry pie filling
  • 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Crust

  • 2 recipes Oreo pie crust (or store bought)

Garnish

  • Hot fudge topping
  • Whipped cream
  • Cherries

Instructions

  1. Whip the cream: Beat the cold heavy whipping cream in a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment until stiff peaks form. Set aside carefully to maintain the airy texture.
  2. Prepare cherry filling: In a medium bowl, add the cherry pie filling and use a potato masher to crush it slightly, releasing more cherry flavor. Stir in the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract until well combined.
  3. Combine filling and whip: Pour the cherry mixture into the whipped cream and gently fold them together to create a smooth, fluffy filling without deflating the whipped cream.
  4. Assemble pies: Divide the combined filling evenly between the two prepared Oreo pie crusts, spreading it out evenly. Cover each pie tightly with plastic wrap.
  5. Freeze: Place the pies in the freezer and chill for at least 4 hours, allowing the filling to set and develop its ice cream-like texture.
  6. Serve and garnish: Before serving, drizzle the pies with hot fudge or chocolate sauce, and top them with additional whipped cream and fresh cherries to enhance flavor and presentation.

Notes

  • Use cold heavy whipping cream for best whipping results.
  • The crushing of cherry pie filling helps release juices for better flavor integration.
  • Fold gently to maintain the whipped cream’s airiness and fluffy texture.
  • Pies must be frozen for at least 4 hours to achieve the right firmness.
  • Store leftover pie covered in the freezer and serve within 2-3 days for best quality.
  • You can substitute Oreo crust with any chocolate cookie crust or graham cracker crust if preferred.
  • For a nut-free dessert, ensure the pie crust you select contains no nuts.
