In a large bowl add cream cheese and powdered sugar.
Use a mixer to beat until smooth.
Mix in whipped topping.
Spoon over crust.
Spread cherries on top.

You can also use fresh blueberries in the top left corner and spoon cherry pie filling to make stripes that make the dessert look like a flag.
Perfect for the 4th of July!
