Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 3 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 4 cups Fresh strawberries
• 8 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
• 0.75 cups Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
• 1 teaspoon Gelatin powder
• 2 tablespoons Cold water
• 1 cup Fresh strawberry slices (for topping)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs and granulated sugar. Add the melted butter and combine until the mixture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

Press the graham cracker mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie dish to form an even crust. Use the bottom of a cup to press it down if needed.

Step 4

Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 8-10 minutes, until lightly golden. Remove and let it cool completely.

Step 5

In a small bowl, sprinkle the gelatin powder over the cold water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom. Then microwave for 10-15 seconds until dissolved. Set aside to cool slightly.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.

Step 7

Using a separate chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric mixer until it forms stiff peaks.

Step 8

Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined and fluffy.

Step 9

Blend 3 cups of strawberries in a blender or food processor until smooth. Pour the puree into the cream cheese mixture and mix until evenly distributed.

Step 10

Stir the dissolved gelatin into the strawberry-cream mixture and mix well.

Step 11

Pour the filling into the cooled graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 12

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4-6 hours, or until the filling is set.

Step 13

Before serving, top the pie with fresh strawberry slices for garnish. Slice and enjoy your Fluffy Strawberry Pie!
