I make this with canned cherries http://www.disboards.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=91786. If you wanted to use cherry pie filling, it would probably work if you used cherry or cranberry juice for the juice.

This is good with cherry pie filling.

Fruit-filled Coffee Cake
From Gold Medal Best Bread Machine Recipes
2/3 cup water
3 TBSP butter or margarine, softened
2 cups bread flour
3 TBSP sugar
1 tsp salt
1-1/2 tsp yeast
1 cup canned pie filling, any flavor
1. Place all ingredients except pie filling in bread machine in order recommended by manufacturer.
2. Select Dough/Manual cycle.
3. When done, remove dough with floured hands. Let rest on lightly floured surface 10 minutes.
4. Grease cookie sheet. Roll dough into 13 X 8 inch rectangle with floured rolling pin, and then place on cookie sheet. Spoon pie filling lengthwise down center third of rectangle. One each 13 inch side, make cuts in dough almost to filling every 1 inch. Use kitchen scissors. Fold strips diagonally over filling, alternating sides and overlapping in center so that filling is covered. Cover and let rise in oven 30 to 45 minutes. Place bowl of warm water in oven while rising. Dough is ready when indentation remains when touched.
5. Heat oven to 375. Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until golden brown. Remove to wire rack to cool.
Variation: Can make double recipe in counter-top mixer. Let yeast proof in half of the water, heat the other half with butter, sugar and salt. Divide dough after first rising. First rising takes a little over an hour.

Easy Cherry Cheescake...

Make a graham cracker crust...

1 1/2 pks of graham crackers
1/4 cup sugar
whirl in a food processor
add 1/4 c. or more melted butter until it sticks together
spray 13X9 inch pan and push crumbs into it

Filling

2 blocks of cream cheese
1 can condensed milk (not evaporated)
1 T lemon juice
1/4-1/2 cup sugar to taste
whirl it up in the food processor or with a mixer ( I don't even clean out the processor from the crumbs, you never see the extra crumbs anyway)

Pour over the crumbs and spread out.
Add one or two cans of cherry filling and spread over the top of that. Cover & Refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

This is the easiest recipe I have and one of the most requested. I never tell anyone how easy it is and they assume I go to all kinds of trouble. An added plus, my husband adores cheesecake, and settles for this happily when I don't want to do the real thing.

Have fun!
