Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 0.33 cups Unsalted butter (melted)
- 0.25 cups Granulated sugar
- 8 oz Cream cheese (softened)
- 0.75 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 1 cups Heavy whipping cream
- 1.5 lbs Fresh strawberries (hulled and sliced)
- 0.5 cups Strawberry jam
- 2 tbsp Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand.
Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust.
Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 7-8 minutes, or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let it cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy using an electric mixer.
In a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined and fluffy.
Spread the cream filling evenly into the cooled pie crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Arrange the sliced strawberries on top of the cream filling in a decorative pattern.
In a small saucepan over low heat, combine the strawberry jam and water. Stir until the jam is melted and forms a glaze.
Brush the strawberry glaze over the sliced strawberries to give them a glossy finish.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or until fully chilled and set.
Slice and serve the strawberry cream pie chilled. Enjoy this decadent dessert!
