Ingredients You’ll Need

1 nine-inch graham cracker crust: A deep dish is recommended to hold all that delicious filling.
1 cup heavy whipping cream: This adds the lush, fluffy texture that makes the pie so decadent.
4 ounces cream cheese, softened to room temperature: It provides a creamy base and rich flavor.
1 14-ounce can sweetened condensed milk, well-chilled: This is the secret to making the filling extra creamy and sweet.
1 1/2 cups pureed strawberries: Use frozen strawberries in syrup or fresh strawberries mixed with 1/4 cup sugar. They give the pie its signature strawberry flavor.

How to Make No-Bake Frozen Strawberry Pie

Chill Ingredients: Ensure that your heavy whipping cream, sweetened condensed milk, and graham cracker crust are well-chilled before starting. This helps the pie set properly.
Make Whipped Cream: In a chilled glass bowl, whip the 1 cup heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Place this in the refrigerator to keep cold while you prep the rest.
Combine Cream Cheese and Condensed Milk: In a separate large mixing bowl, beat the 4 ounces cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Slowly beat in the 14-ounce can of chilled sweetened condensed milk and the 1 1/2 cups pureed strawberries until the mixture is uniform and well-blended.
Fold in Whipped Cream: Gently fold the chilled whipped cream into the strawberry mixture using a spatula until no white streaks remain. This should be done carefully to keep the mixture light and airy.
Fill Crust: Pour the filling into the graham cracker crust. If you’ve kept everything cold and worked quickly, the filling will mound beautifully above the rim.
Freeze the Pie: Place the pie immediately into the freezer. Let it set for at least 4 hours, or ideally overnight for the best texture and flavor.
Prepare to Serve: Remove the pie from the freezer about 10 minutes before you plan to slice it. This allows it to soften just enough for a clean cut.

Storing & Reheating

To keep your No-Bake Frozen Strawberry Pie fresh, store it in the freezer in an airtight container for up to 3 months. If stored in the refrigerator, consume it within a few days to maintain its fluffy texture and flavor. To slice, let it thaw slightly at room temperature for 10 minutes before cutting. Avoid reheating, as the pie is best served chilled.

This pie can be made a day in advance, making it a fantastic make-ahead dessert.
