Summer is the perfect time to indulge in sweet, refreshing desserts. And what could be more refreshing than a homemade strawberry pie? This strawberry pie recipe with jello and cream cheese is the perfect combination of sweet, tart, and creamy.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pie crust (homemade or store-bought)
  • 1 cup water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 3 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1 package (3 ounces) strawberry Jello
  • 1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened

Fresh Strawberries

Instructions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  2. Place your pie crust in a 9-inch pie dish and prick the bottom with a fork. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until golden brown. Allow it to cool completely.
  3. In a medium saucepan, whisk together water, sugar, and cornstarch. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a boil and thickens.
  4. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in the strawberry Jello until dissolved. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
  5. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, vanilla extract, and 1/4 cup of the cooled Jello mixture until smooth and creamy.
  6. Add the sliced strawberries to the remaining Jello mixture and stir to combine.
  7. Pour the cream cheese mixture into the cooled pie crust and spread evenly.
  8. Top the cream cheese layer with the strawberry Jello mixture.
  9. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
  10. Top with whipped cream before serving, if desired.

Tips and Tricks:

  • Make sure your cream cheese is softened before mixing it with the Jello mixture. This will ensure a smooth and creamy texture.
  • Use fresh strawberries for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you don't have a pie dish, you can use a 9-inch cake pan instead.
  • If you want to save time, you can use a store-bought pie crust instead of making your own.
  • If you're short on time, you can skip baking the pie crust and use a graham cracker crust instead. Just make sure to use a 9-inch crust.
