Deluxe Strawberry Cheese Pie
Adapted from The All New Good Housekeeping Cook Book
Ingredients:
Graham Cracker Crust (store bought or make your own – mine was store bought)
12 ounces cream cheese, softened
½ cup sugar
2 large eggs
½ teaspoons vanilla extract
1-2 pints of strawberries, hulled and cut in half
1/3 cup seedless jelly (I used blackberry)
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350F.
In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla; beat just until combined.
Pour cheese filling into crust (cooled, if you made your own). Bake until set, about 30 minutes. Cool pie completely.
In a small saucepan, heat jelly over medium-low heat until melted.
Arrange strawberries on top of pie. Brush with melted jelly. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
