Nutrition

• graham cracker
  12 pcs
• sugar
  5 tbsp
• butter
  7 tbsp
• sugar
  0.5 cup
• cornstarch
  2 tbsp
• water
  1.5 cup
• strawberry gelatin
  85 g
• strawberry
  4.5 cup
• heavy cream
  0.8 cup
• cream cheese
  113 g
• maple syrup
  0.3 cup

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Mix crust ingredients and press into a 9-inch pie plate. Bake at 350 for 10 minutes.

2. 2

   Wash the strawberries well and blot them dry with a paper towel. Cut off the tops. If they are large, cut them all in half.

3. 3

   In a small saucepan, whisk the sugar, cornstarch, and cold water. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring continuously, until it begins to thicken. Once it starts bubbling, cook it for another two minutes. Add Jell-O and stir till dissolved. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

4. 4

   Arrange half of the berries in your prepared pie crust. Pour some of the cornstarch mixture over the berries. Repeat with the remaining berries on top, and cover with just enough of the cornstarch mixture to coat the berries.

5. 5

   Refrigerate for 4-6 hours.

6. 6

   Using a hand mixer, beat the heavy cream until soft peaks form. In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Slowly beat in the maple syrup with the cream cheese until it is loose and creamy. Fold the cream cheese mixture into the whipped cream.

7. 7

   Serve the pie slices cold, with a dollop of the whipped cream cheese on top!
