Chocolate Covered Strawberry Pie
This Chocolate Covered Strawberry Pie combines fresh strawberries, a smooth creamy filling, and rich chocolate for an irresistible dessert that's perfect for family gatherings and special occasions.
Ingredients
- 1 prepared 9-inch chocolate cookie crust
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 cups fresh strawberries, sliced
- 1 cup fresh strawberries, whole
- 4 oz semi-sweet chocolate
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
How to Make It
Whip the Cream
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until light and fluffy.
Build the Pie
Spread the creamy filling evenly into the prepared chocolate cookie crust. Arrange the sliced strawberries over the top, covering the filling generously.
Prepare the Chocolate
Melt the semi-sweet chocolate with coconut oil until smooth. Allow it to cool slightly before drizzling it over the strawberries.
Chill
Refrigerate the pie for at least 3 hours, or until the filling is firm and completely chilled.
Serve
Garnish with whole strawberries and an additional drizzle of chocolate if desired. Slice and serve chilled.
Recipe Tips
Use fresh, firm strawberries for the best texture and appearance. Make sure the cream cheese is softened before mixing to create a smooth filling. For cleaner slices, chill the pie thoroughly and use a sharp knife warmed under hot water before cutting.
