Cheesecake Dip

Cheesecake Dip:

8 oz cream cheese, softened

4 cups cool whip

1/4 -1/2 cup icing sugar

1 tsp almond extract

2 cups pie filling of your choice-I like to use my homemade Evans Cherry Pie Filling

Place softened cream cheese in a mixing bowl. Add icing sugar and almond extract. Mix well. Add cool whip, 1 cup at a time and mixing well in between. Spread into a serving platter/dish. Pour pie filling over top. Serve with Homemade Cinnamon Chips, Sugar/ Shortbread Cookies, Graham Crackers or Chocolate wafers. My favorite is the Homemade cinnamon chips. Recipe is as follows:

Homemade Cinnamon Chips:

Bake 8-10 minutes, being careful not to over-bake. Allow to cool. Serve with Cheesecake dip OR Fruit Salsa( you can find that delicious recipe in my blog as well!)
