Ingredients List
For the Crust
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
For the Filling
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
For the Strawberry Topping
- 8–10 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- ¼ cup water
Instructions
1. Prepare the crust
In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar. Stir in the melted butter until the mixture is well combined and crumbly.
Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form the crust. Refrigerate the crust for at least 30 minutes to set.
2. Make the filling
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth.
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue mixing until fully combined.
Fold in the whipped topping until smooth and well incorporated.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the chilled graham cracker crust.
3. Make the strawberry topping
In a small saucepan, combine the sliced strawberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, and water.
Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
4. Assemble the pie
Once the strawberry topping has cooled, spoon it evenly over the cream cheese filling, spreading it out to cover the entire surface.
5. Chill and serve
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or until it is fully set.
Serve chilled, and enjoy!
