3 hrsFive ingredients, zero oven time, and a dessert that feeds a crowd. The icebox cake formula never gets old.
Graham crackers layer up with a creamy vanilla pudding folded together with whipped topping, stacked three layers high in a 13×9 pan.
Cherry pie filling blankets the top in a thick, glossy layer of fruit that makes every slice look like something from a bakery case.
Three hours in the fridge softens the crackers into tender cake-like layers that slice cleanly and taste like cherry cheesecake’s laid-back cousin.
Kitchen Tips
- Let the pudding stand a full 5 minutes before folding in the whipped topping so it’s properly set
- Break graham crackers to fit snugly without gaps for even layers
- The longer it chills, the softer the crackers become; overnight is even better than 3 hours
- Slice with a sharp knife dipped in warm water for the cleanest cuts

Line 13×9 inch pan with some of the graham crackers, breaking crackers if necessary.
