Description
Strawberry Icebox Pie is a delicious no-bake dessert that combines a creamy filling with fresh strawberries, all nestled in a graham cracker crust.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
- ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F.
- In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until well mixed.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan.
- Bake for 8-10 minutes until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.
- Add the vanilla extract and mix until combined.
- Gently fold in the sliced strawberries.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream and granulated sugar until stiff peaks form.
- Carefully fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese and strawberry mixture until fully combined.
- Pour the filling into the cooled graham cracker crust, spreading it evenly.
- Cover the pie with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set.
- Before serving, garnish with additional fresh strawberries if desired.
Notes
- For a twist, try using different berries like blueberries or raspberries instead of strawberries.
- You can also add a layer of chocolate ganache on top of the filling for a richer flavor.
