EASY NO BAKE STRAWBERRY CREAM PIE RECIPE: Fresh Strawberry Dessert with homemade vanilla wafer crust

This easy, no bake Strawberry Cream Pie recipe is the perfect thing to make when you have fresh strawberries and are wondering what to make with them. It's light and delicious, and is a hit with a homemade vanilla wafer pie crust, although you can buy one ready-made. You only need a few ingredients for this yummy strawberry dessert. And once you've tried it, you'll make it again and again!
Strawberry Cream Pie Recipe
16 oz. (1 lb.) container of fresh strawberries, cut into thin slices (save a few for garnish)
2 Tbsp. (or 1/8 cup) sugar
1 Tbsp. lemon juice
1 8-ounce tub Coolwhip
For pie crust:
1 1/2 cup vanilla wafer crumbs (or graham cracker crumbs if you prefer)
6 Tbsp. melted butter
Wash and cut up your strawberries into thin wedges and place in medium size bowl. Add 2 Tbsp. sugar and stir. Cover and let sit in refrigerator a minimum of 2 hours, to allow strawberries to break down and form a little syrup/juice. You can even do this the day before, if you have time.
Meantime, you can make the crust. Place vanilla wafers into food processor to grind them into a powder, or place them in a large ziplock back and break them up by running a rolling pin back & forth across the sealed bag.
Place crumbs into a bowl, add in melted butter and mix well. Dump mixture into pie plate and press down with spoon or fingers to form pie crust. You should have an even layer of crust on the bottom and sides of your pie plate. Set aside.
When strawberries have set long enough, add 1Tbsp. lemon juice to them and stir. Empty Coolwhip container into a large mixing bowl. Fold in strawberry mixture until evenly mixed. Then take strawberry/Coolwhip mixture and pour it into pie crust, using a knife or spatula to spread it across evenly. Refrigerate pie two hours to allow it to set. When it's time to serve, garnish it with fresh strawberries and enjoy!

I make my version to this by adding sweeten cream cheese and mix the cool whip into it and what ever fruit. I made a strawberry one and a peach one. My son loves the peach one.

[@marcyinspired1442]

Sounds yummy. I'll have to try this with peaches. Thanks for the comment.

[@taosjedi]

That looked yummy!! Maybe I'll try that with a chocolate graham cracker crust for that chocolate covered strawberry taste! Strawberry Pie Forever...

[@marcyinspired1442]

Chocolate/Strawberry is always a winning combination in my book. :)

Strawberries are on sale at my grocery and are still so good so ,I bought alot, to get that last strawberry fix in before we get to far into fall! I came across this vid so, I'm gonna try it to switch things up from using glaze. And, I was thinkin this would also be good with mandarin oranges! Thank you!

[@marcyinspired1442]

This is definitely a great way to use up those strawberries. You’ll have to let me know if you ever try this with mandarin oranges. I’m curious now.

[@gman9035]

Looks delish. And a man would never try to scam a woman

[@marcyinspired1442]

That's what I thought. Lol

[@crissycattuzzo1460]

Not sure how long I was sleeping for but the undercounter microwave drawer has been around for how long?? I have to admit I got stuck at 1:46 with you melting the butter! lol New subscriber, making this pie today. 🤗

[@marcyinspired1442]

It's been at least seven years that they've been around because that's how long it's been since we redid our kitchen. I always wanted a hood over my stove and that's where our old microwave used to be. So I was thrilled when I saw the drawer version. Thanks for the comment and for subscribing. Hope you enjoyed the pie!

[@mehjabeenjable3632]

Hi do you have more no bake desserts thats soooo simple like this

[@mehjabeenjable3632]

Ok thats fine il go fetch the fruit

[@jameskirk1638]

"A scam" !😂😂😂 That's too cute.

[@marcyinspired1442]

Ha! I had forgotten I said that, but it's true. Lol

[@m.p.6039]

Ah, the ol' strawberry cream pie scam, get'sem every time

[@marcyinspired1442]

😂 Worked on me, anyway! Lol

[@mehjabeenjable3632]

Hi can i make this without fruit

[@marcyinspired1442]

The fruit is where you get the flavor. It will just taste like whipped cream pie without the fruit. That said, you're the one eating it, so do what you like.

[@sarah-wt6ef]

What if I don’t have cool whip what can i substitute with

[@marcyinspired1442]

You can make your own whipped cream by using 1 cup cold heavy cream or heavy whipping cream, 2 Tbsp. confectioners sugar or granulated sugar and 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract. You'll need an electric hand mixer to whip it until it forms stiff peaks. Then use it immediately or cover it and let it chill in the refrigerator for 24 hours.

[@sarah-wt6ef]

@@marcyinspired1442 thank u so much

[@bettymiller7604]

Can i use frozen strawberries for this recipe?

[@marcyinspired1442]

I've never tried this with frozen strawberries, but I would imagine it would work. (So long as there's the same amount of liquid when you thaw them.) Let me know if you do make it. I'll be curious to know the answer.

[@mehjabeenjable3632]

Hi is this a cheesecake or entirely different

[@marcyinspired1442]

It's definitely not a cheesecake. There's no cream cheese in it. It's whipped cream.
