Spray a 9x9 inch baking pan with nonstick baking spray.
In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar together. Spread graham cracker crust evenly on the bottom of the prepared baking pan.
Using an electric hand or stand mixer, beat together the Cool Whip and cream cheese until smooth.
Add sugar and vanilla until well blended.
Pour the cheesecake mixture on top of the crust. Spread evenly.
Top with the cherry pie filling.
Chill for at least 3-5 hours (overnight is even better) if storing in the fridge overnight, cover with plastic wrap.

Softened Cream Cheese. Make sure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the filling.
Firm Pressing. Firmly press the graham cracker crumb mixture into your dish to create a compact and even crust. Use the bottom of a glass or measuring cup for even pressure.
Quality Cherry Pie Filling. Use a good quality cherry pie filling for the best flavor.
Spread Evenly. Spread the cherry topping evenly over the cream cheese layer for a consistent flavor in every bite.
Chill Before Serving. Chilling cherry delight is key! Make sure to chill for at least 3 hours but it tastes the best when it chills over night.
