@ scrappintoee I am aware there are other names and variations of this dish, but here is the recipe.
Mix 3 cups (2 pkgs) Honey Maid graham cracker crumbs (I like to crush them myself) with 1¼ sticks of butter (not margarin)
Beat together util very thick; 8 oz. Philadelphia cream cheese ½ cup sugar 1 cup milk 1 box (2 pkgs) Dream Whip
Spread ½ graham cracker mix over bottom of 9X13x2 bake pan. Spread ½ Dream Whip mix over graham cracker layer. Spoon 2 cans of Wilderness cherries over Dream Whip layer. Lay remaining Dream Whip mix over the cherries. Sprinkle the remaining graham cracker mix over the top.
Refrigerate at least 4 hours before serving, overnight is better.
All that being said, I use double the graham cracker mix and the Dream Whip mix. By doubling the graham cracker mix I can coat the side of the dish (I use a Pyrex dish)
I cut a piece of packaging plastic in to a circle to cover the mixing bowl, and made 2 holes for the mixer blades. Clean up went much better the second time.
DD tends to use less priced ingredients, to me there is a huge difference.

Kind of like Cool Whip, but it is a powder topping that you have to whip up yourself. Dream Whip is the brand. For somethings Dream Whip actually is better than using Cool Whip. ETA here is the description from Google Dream Whip is a brand of whipped topping mix that is mixed with milk and vanilla to make a whipped dessert topping, currently owned by the Kraft Heinz company.

Where is it in the grocery store? I have never heard of it. I haven’t bought it for a long, long time but it was in the baking isle. I’ve used it in the past sprinkled into heavy whipping cream as it helps it hold its whipped shape/texture longer for a dessert presentation.

Thanks for the memory! I loved Pink Junk as a kid. I always wished for more crust, I wish my mom had thought to go up the sides.
I'm sure the Queen is looking down and getting a giggle over you sharing her recipes. 😁 I hope your Christmas was peaceful, warm and bright. And may your New Year ring in with your heart resolute, a spring in your step, and many happy hours paper crafting.
