Lighter Cherry Cheesecake

This is a different cheesecake and is so good. Everyone thinks it is high fat, but it's not. I make this often for birthdays and special occasions. You can also use different flavor pie filling. The picture I have posted uses my blueberry sauce Blueberry Breakfast Sauce (Quick and Easy). Show more
