Ingredients

Crust

Cream Cheese Cream

Finishing

Directions

  1. Crush graham crackers to meal. Melt butter and add to meal along with sugar.
  2. Press mixture on bottom and sides of a deep 9-inch pie tin. Place in oven for 7-8 minutes and allow to cool.
  3. Place soft cream cheese in a microwave-safe bowl large enough to hold all ingredients. Add sugar and combine using a handheld rubber spatula. Mixture needs to be slightly warmer than room temperature (about 80°F). If needed, place in a microwave oven at 10-second intervals.
  4. In a bowl, whip cream and vanilla to a medium consistency. Do not whip until stiff. 
  5. Add half of whipped cream to cheese mixture and mix using a rubber spatula until combined.
  6. Add remaining cream and mix only until combined. Excess mixing will result in a denser cream.
  7. Transfer cream to prebaked and completely cool pie crust. Place in refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  8. To finish pie, wash, dry, and remove stems from strawberries. Arrange on pie.
  9. Press strawberry fruit spread through a sieve to remove lumps. Brush fruit spread on strawberries.
  10. In a cold bowl whip cream, sugar, and vanilla to stiff peaks. Fit cream in a piping bag fitted with a large French pastry tip and pipe kisses on edge of pie.
