Instructions

1

Prepare the crust

In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the crumbs are evenly coated. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch (23 cm) pie pan. Chill in the freezer for 10 minutes.

Pro tip: Use the bottom of a measuring cup to press the crust evenly.

2

Blend strawberries

In a blender or food processor, puree the strawberries until smooth. Set aside.

Pro tip: Ensure there are no chunks for a smoother filling.

3

Whip the cream

In a large bowl, whip the heavy cream using a mixer on high speed until stiff peaks form. This should take about 3-4 minutes.

Pro tip: Chill the bowl and beaters for faster whipping.

4

Combine filling ingredients

Gently fold the strawberry puree, sweetened condensed milk, and vanilla extract into the whipped cream until well combined.

Pro tip: Fold gently to maintain the airy texture.

5

Assemble the pie

Pour the strawberry filling into the prepared crust, spreading it evenly.

Pro tip: Smooth the top with a spatula for a neat finish.

6

Freeze the pie

Cover the pie with plastic wrap and freeze for at least 4 hours or until firm. For best results, freeze overnight.
