Strawberry Cream Pie
We've been hosting people over at our house lately to get to know them better, which is a great opportunity to do some extra baking! I always ask our guests what their favorite dessert is, and recently we had a neighbor visit that loved fruit pies. Since I'm not really a pie person, I had to find one that I thought looked good, and goodness this Strawberry Cream Pie hit the spot!
We'd picked three gallons of strawberries which I'd frozen, so I just used those strawberries to make it. In just one night my husband, sixteen-year-old and I devoured it ~ so much for leftovers! 🙂 Here's the recipe so you can try it out too.
You will impress your friends and family with this Strawberry Cream Pie Recipe – I promise this one is always a favorite!Â
Can I substitute heavy whipping cream instead of cool whip?
Cool Whip gives the best results in this recipe. However, you can substitute with homemade whipped cream.
