Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
- 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (for crust)
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 0.5 cups Powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 4 Fresh kiwis, peeled and sliced
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (for glaze)
- 0.25 cup Water
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar (for crust) until evenly combined.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form an even crust.
Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes, then allow it to cool completely.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese, mixing until well combined.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture to create the filling.
Spread the cream cheese filling evenly into the cooled crust, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
Arrange the kiwi slices decoratively on top of the filling, covering the surface completely.
In a small saucepan, combine the cornstarch, granulated sugar (for glaze), and water. Cook over medium heat, whisking continuously, until the mixture thickens and becomes clear (about 2-3 minutes).
Allow the glaze to cool slightly, then gently brush it over the kiwi slices to give them a shiny finish and prevent drying.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 2 hours to set before serving. Slice and enjoy!
