Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 8 oz Cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream, chilled
- 1 lb Fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 0.5 cups Strawberry jam
- 1 tsp Lemon juice
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter until the mixture is evenly combined and resembles wet sand.
Press the crumb mixture evenly into a 9-inch pie dish, ensuring the bottom and sides are well-covered.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract together until smooth and creamy.
In a separate bowl, whip the chilled heavy whipping cream with a hand or stand mixer until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined and smooth.
Spread the cream cheese filling evenly into the cooled pie crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the strawberry jam and lemon juice. Stir until the jam is melted and slightly thinned, then remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
Arrange the sliced strawberries on top of the cream cheese layer in an even, decorative pattern.
Brush the melted and cooled strawberry jam glaze over the strawberries to give them a shiny finish.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until set. For best results, chill overnight.
Slice and serve the pie chilled. Enjoy your Cream Cheese Strawberry Pie!
