Which do you think goes better with the more flavorful, not-as-sweet-as-pumpkin-pie sweet potato pie? Sweet or not? What does the recipe call for?

How do you make cream cheese pie, as opposed to cheesecake? I'm trying to make a cream cheese pie, not a cheesecake. One difference is that the cream cheese pie is not baked. It has a different consistencey, about as firm, as ice cream, but smoother and not frozen. It dosen't have the cake-like consistency of cheesecake. Anyway, I'm using the following recipe: INGREDIENTS 1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crust 1 (21 ounce) can light cherry pie filling 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened 1 (14 ounce) can sweetened condensed milk 1/3 cup lemon juice 1 teaspoon vanilla extract DIRECTIONS Beat cream cheese until light and fluffy. Gradually add sweetened condensed milk, and continue beating until smooth and combined. Add lemon juice and vanilla; mix well. Fill graham cracker crust evenly. Refrigerate until set; this will take between 2 to 4 hours. The end result? Cream cheese soup! Does anybody know how I can firm this up? Or am I doing something wrong? I definitely used sweetened condensed milk, not evaporated milk. Thanks for the responses. I'll try it again. Did not add cheries either. I have a can to spoon over slices ater it sets and I cut it, but I didn't add it to the mix.
