• 1 Chocolate Ready Made Chocolate Graham Cracker pie crust
• 1 Box Chocolate Covered Cherries
• 2 Cans Cherry Pie Filling
• 16 ounce(s) of Cool Whip Topping, thawed
• 1 cup(s) of Cocoa Powder
• 12 ounce(s) of Whipped Philadelphia Cream Cheese
1. In a large strainer placed over a bowl, drain off the juice from the cherry pie filling and set aside. There will still be some juice left on the cherries.
2. Place cream cheese, cherry juice that you set aside, and cocoa powder in a mixing bowl. Beat with an electric mixer set on high until well blended, about 2 to 3 minutes.
3. Spread cherries on bottom of pie crust.
4. With mixer set on low, drop large spoonfuls of Cool Whip into cream cheese mixture until all Cool Whip is added. Continue mixing until well blended. This could take up to 5 minutes.
5. Pour mixture on top of cherries and pile high in the center.
6. Garnish with chocolate covered cherries and chill in refrigerator for 1 hour before serving.

Chef's Note & Story
I love chocolate! I really wanted to make something that had a lot of chocolate in it and was easy to make because baking is not my strong suit. This dessert is something I take with me for Thanksgiving when I go to someone's house or make when I have it at my house.
