Number Of Ingredients 6

1 9-inch pie shell, baked
3 boxes strawberries (pints)
3/4 to 1 cup sugar
3T cornstarch
3 oz. cream cheese
1 cup whipping cream, whipped

Steps:

  • Pick over berries, reserving largest and prettiest to use whole- enough to arrange in concentric circles to fill pie shell. Remove stems. Cut up the rest of the berries to make glaze. Should have 2 cups for glaze. Put cut up berries in saucepan along with sugar and cornstarch. Stir and mash to combine. Cook over medium heat, stirring, until mixture comes to a boil and thickens, turns clear and shiny red. Remove from heat and let cool slightly. Soften cream cheese by mashing and stirring with a bit of milk. Spread over bottom of pie shell. Arrange whole berries over cheese, stem end down. Use cut berries to fill edges. Spread strawberry glaze over all. Top with whipped cream.
