Wonderful memories come with this recipe from when my brother and I were little saplings. Some of our favorite stories of Gramma are when she would make this pie. Every time I take a bite, I can't help but smile, and every time my brother comes for a visit from wherever he is stationed by the Air Force, we HAVE to make this pie! Also, Great for summer or Valentines Day! *********************************** Cut recipe in 1/2 for 2 pies instead of 4. Beware, two pies might not be enough! ;)

How To Make grandma's strawberry cream cheese pie

  • Step 1
    Prepare gelatin according to package directions. DO NOT put in fridge to cool. Stir mixture until properly diluted.
  • Step 2
    Add strawberries to blender. Cover blender and start at a lower setting (so as not to spill). Then add cream cheese packages and increase blender setting to mix strawberries and cream cheese well.
  • Step 3
    Once the strawberries and cream cheese packages are blended well, slowly add gelatin solution. Adjust blender settings appropriately so as not to spill over pie filling.
  • Step 4
    Just like gelatin, slowly add condensed milk to blender. Once container is empty, allow mixture to blend for approximately 30 more seconds. Mixture will be thick Turn Blender off.
  • Step 5
    Pour contents evenly over 4 9-inch pie crusts. Cover filled pies with clear plastic cover and let sit in refrigerator for approximately 30-45 minutes. Pie filling will look slightly glossy when first poured in.
  • Step 6
    Eat and enjoy!
