Method

  1. In a large bowl, combine cream cheese, white sugar, and vanilla. Use a beater to mix until the mixture becomes smooth.

  2. Add 3/4 cup of mashed strawberries to the cream cheese mixture. Stir well to ensure they are thoroughly combined.

  3. In a separate glass or metal bowl, beat heavy cream and confectioners' sugar until stiff peaks form.

  4. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until everything is evenly mixed.

  5. Fold in 1/4 cup of sliced strawberries.

  6. Spoon the strawberry mixture into a graham cracker crust.

  7. Place the pie in the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 3 hours before serving.

  8. To check for stiff peaks in step 3, lift the beaters or whisk straight up. The cream should form sharp peaks.

  9. Optionally, you can garnish the pie with additional strawberries and fresh mint.
