Notes: This is the famous cherry pie that mother serves during family get-togethers. I have used regular milk in place of the chilled canned evaporated milk. Either way, make sure your milk is chilled. Mother uses 1/2 cup sugar, but I use half that. The cream cheese must be room temperature - otherwise your filling will be lumpy. Sometimes I do not add the cherry pie filling since I like the cream cheese filling the best!
