strawberry cream cheese pie
This strawberry cream cheese pie is a hit with everyone. Great summer dessert. :)
Blue Ribbon Recipe
Sweet, fresh, and satisfying, this strawberry cream cheese pie will be perfect for any summer event. A traditional flaky pie crust is the base. The bottom layer is similar to a no-bake cheesecake that's thick and creamy. Then the top is similar to an old-fashioned strawberry pie with sweet strawberry gelatin holding in fresh strawberries. We topped ours with a little whipped cream, but it's delish without it.
