Cherry Pie Filling
Brown Butter Graham Crust
Toasted Almond Topping
Soft Serve
Method
Prepare the Philly Cheesecake Layer
Mix the Cheesecake
In a mixing bowl, blend the cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gradually add the heavy cream and mix until fully incorporated and fluffy.
Make the Brown Butter Graham Crust
Prepare the Crust
In a skillet, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat, stirring until it turns golden brown and has a nutty aroma. In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, and salt. Pour the brown butter into the mixture and stir until crumbly.
Bake the Crust
Press the crumb mixture into the bottom of a serving dish to form an even layer. Bake in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 10 minutes. Allow to cool.
Toast the Almonds
Toast the Almonds
In a dry skillet, toast the sliced almonds over medium heat, stirring frequently until golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
Assemble the Sundae
Layer the Sundae
In a bowl, layer the baked graham crust, followed by a layer of the Philly cheesecake mixture. Spoon the cherry pie filling over the cheesecake, and top with scoops of Foothill's Creamery soft serve. Finish with a sprinkle of toasted almonds.
