3. Pour cream cheese mixture onto the crust. Bake for 40 minutes (see note below).

4. Let pie cool for 10 minutes.

5. Mix topping ingredients, stirring in the canned cherries. Pour over the cooled pie.

6. Bake for 10 minutes. Garnish the top with almonds and maraschino cherry halves.

7. Cool pie at least 8 hours or overnight in refrigerator.

Note: Test for doneness with knife in center of pie. Knife should come out clean, of course. You may need to put foil around the edges if using a pie pan.
