My mother treated us to strawberry desserts each spring, and this was the one we always looked forward to. I tried making it with the chocolaty cookie crust and now make it that way all the time. It's a winner. Judith Kapcsos Colorado City, Arizona Ingredients:
1/2 cup crushed oreo cookie crumbs (7 cookies) |
2 tablespoons sugar |
2 tablespoons butter, melted |
filling: |
4 ounces cream cheese, softened |
2 tablespoons sugar |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1/2 cup mashed fresh strawberries |
1/2 cup heavy whipping cream |
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar |
Directions:
1. Combine the cookie crumbs, sugar and butter; press into a 7-in. pie plate. Bake at 375° for 8 minutes. Cool completely on a wire rack.
2. In a small bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth. Stir in the strawberries. In another small bowl, beat cream until it begins to thicken.
