Method
- Start by preparing the crust. In a food processor, pulse the chocolate cookies into fine crumbs. Mix with melted butter, then press firmly into a 9-inch pie dish. Refrigerate until set.
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
- Layer the pie: start with cream cheese filling, then fudgy chocolate pudding, and sliced strawberries. Repeat until full. Finish with a layer of cream cheese mixture topped with strawberries.
- Cover and chill in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight for best results.
Notes
Use ripe, high-quality strawberries for the best flavor and texture. Chilling overnight enhances the flavors beautifully.
