Ingredients
For the Crust:
- 2 cups (224g) graham cracker crumbs (about 2 sleeves)
- 6 tablespoons (84g) unsalted butter, melted
For the Filling:
- 8 ounces fresh strawberries, pureed
- 1 cup (236ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
- ½ cup (65g) powdered sugar
- 8 ounces (452) full-fat cream cheese, at room temperature
- ¼ cup (48g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon (5ml) pure vanilla extract
- 1 cup (104g) Jet-Puffed Marshmallow Creme
For the Topping:
- ¾ cup (177ml) heavy whipping cream, cold
- ½ cup (65g) powdered sugar
- Additional fresh strawberries for garnish
Instructions
For the Crust:
- Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by lightly greasing the edges of the pan with cooking spray, and then wiping gently with a paper towel.
- Grind the graham crackers into a fine crumb using a food processor or blender. Combine the melted butter and graham cracker crumbs, stirring until well combined.
- Pour the crumbs into the springform pan and press firmly into the bottom and up on the sides of the pan to create the crust. Refrigerate the crust while preparing the filling.
For the Filling:
- Wash and hull the strawberries. Puree them in a food processor or blender until smooth. Pour the puree through a mesh sieve, separating the liquid from the fruit. This should yield about ½ -1/3 cups of pureed fruit, set aside. Discard the liquid.
- Prepare the whipped cream. Chill the mixing bowl and beater blade for 5-10 minutes in the freezer or refrigerator. Beat the heavy cream in the chilled bowl and using the whisk attachment and beat at a high speed until the cream thickens to soft peaks. Add the powdered sugar and continue beating on high speed until stiff peaks form. If needed, transfer to a separate bowl and set aside.
- Next beat the cream cheese until it’s completely smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed. Add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract and continue beating until smooth. Then add the marshmallow creme and strawberry puree, beating until combined.
- Finally, slowly fold in the whipped cream until it’s completely smooth. Pour the filling into the prepared crust, spreading evenly. Refrigerate for 3-4 hours until it’s firm.
For the Topping:
- Prepare another batch of whipped cream following the instructions above. Use a large piping bag to pipe the borders of the pie. Garnish with fresh fruit.
Notes
- To make this pie easier, you can use a prepare graham cracker pie crust.
- Do not skip straining the strawberry puree or the pie won’t set properly.
