About

Well, it has "yum" in the name! That's a positive sign right there! Cherry Yum-Yum has a crunchy, buttery, pecan crust that deserves a few yums before it even gets its topping. But then, the topping comes along, and will definitely receive some more yums! A fluffy whipped cream cheese and bright, jammy cherry pie filling is a crowd-pleaser for sure! Ooooh it looks and tastes so amazing! Grab a plate, serve up this Cherry Yum-Yum, and hear the chorus of "yum-yums" from your table begin!
