Ingredients
For the crust:
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cut into small pieces
- 1/4 cup ice water
For the filling:
- 1 (8 oz.) package cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 (16 oz.) container fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
Instructions
1. Preheat the oven to 375°F.
2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour and salt for the crust. Add the butter and use a pastry blender or your fingers to break up the butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Add the ice water, a tablespoon at a time, until the dough comes together. Form the dough into a ball and flatten it into a disk. Wrap the dough in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.
4. Roll out the dough on a lightly floured surface to fit a 9-inch pie dish. Trim the edges and prick the bottom of the crust with a fork. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly golden. Let cool completely.
5. In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth. Add the sour cream, sugar, and vanilla extract and beat until well combined. Fold in the sliced strawberries.
6. Pour the filling into the cooled crust and smooth out the top. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
7. Serve chilled and enjoy!
