This pie has been a long-awaited treat in my house ever since I first saw the idea floating around Pinterest. I was immediately enamored by the mouthwatering appearance. I discovered the recipe on one of my favorite blogs, Lemon Tree Dwelling (seriously, check out Cathy’s amazing recipes!). This pie is not only incredibly simple to make, but it is also cleverly designed to be a tantalizing dessert.
I decided to go all out and make a homemade crust to take this pie to the next level. The result was a perfect combination of a flaky crust and a luscious strawberry filling. Trust me when I say that this pie did not last long around here. It was simply too good to resist!
Now, I have an idea to try this pie with blueberries and blueberry Jello. Stay tuned, my friends! 😄
Once the pie sets and you slice into it, the beauty of the strawberries and the cream-like filling holds up wonderfully. I absolutely adore pies, and this one never fails to bring a smile to my face. I can assure you that once you try it, you’ll want to make it over and over again. I promise!
This pie is the epitome of summer on a plate. Every bite is pure bliss, and you won’t be disappointed with this beautiful and tasty creation. So, have I convinced you to make this amazing pie yet?
In case you were wondering, I still have one slice left. Let me hurry and finish writing this post so that I can gobble it up!
