Ingredients
  

Strawberry Freezer Pie Filling
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 can sweetened condensed milk
  • 4 oz cream cheese, room temperature
  • 2 cups strawberry puree measured after pureeing
  • 1 prepared 10-inch vanilla wafer or sandwich cookie crust
Strawberry Crumbles
  • 1 box strawberry flavored gelatin 3 oz box
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup butter
Vanilla Crumbles
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup butter
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a medium bowl, mix strawberry gelatin, flour, and butter until crumbly. In another bowl, mix flour, sugar, butter, and vanilla for the vanilla crumbles.
  3. Spread strawberry crumbles on one half of the baking sheet and vanilla crumbles on the other half. Bake for 7–8 minutes without stirring.
  4. Remove from oven and allow crumbles to cool completely, at least 1 hour. Break apart any large pieces and set aside.
  5. In a large bowl, beat heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar until very stiff peaks form. Refrigerate.
  6. In another bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add sweetened condensed milk and mix until fully combined.
  7. Add strawberry puree to the cream cheese mixture and mix well.
  8. Gently fold the strawberry mixture into the whipped cream until fully combined.
  9. Pour filling into the prepared pie crust. Freeze for 4–5 hours until firm.
  10. Before serving, let pie thaw for about 10 minutes, then top generously with strawberry shortcake crumbles.

Notes

A 9-inch crust can be used, though there may be extra filling. This pie is best served slightly thawed for a creamy, ice-cream-like texture.
