  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1.5 cups heavy whipping cream cold
  • 1 lb fresh strawberries sliced
  • 2 tbsp strawberry jam
  • 1 tsp lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Mix crumbs, sugar, and melted butter; press into a 9-inch pie dish and freeze for 10 mins.

  • In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream to stiff peaks.
  • Fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until smooth.
  • Pour filling into crust; refrigerate for at least 3 hours.
  • Toss strawberries with jam and lemon juice; top the pie before serving.

Notes

Ensure cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps.
Do not add the fruit topping until ready to serve to keep the crust crisp.
Use a warm knife for the cleanest slices.
For a firmer pie, chill overnight.
