Description

Strawberry Cream Cheese Slab Pie is a crowd-pleasing dessert featuring a buttery baked crust, a smooth cheesecake-style cream cheese filling, and a glossy, fruity strawberry topping. Perfect for potlucks, holidays, and warm-weather gatherings.


Ingredients

  1. For the crust:
  2. 2 refrigerated pie crusts (or homemade)
  3. For the cream cheese filling:
  4. 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  5. 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  6. 1/2 cup sour cream
  7. 2 large eggs
  8. 1 tsp vanilla extract
  9. For the strawberry topping:
  10. 4 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
  11. 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  12. 2 tbsp cornstarch
  13. 1/2 cup water
  14. 1 (3 oz) package strawberry gelatin (optional)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C). Roll out pie crusts and fit into a greased 10×15-inch jelly roll pan, pressing seams together. Prick crust with a fork and bake for 10–12 minutes until lightly golden. Let cool completely.

  1. Lower oven temperature to 325°F (160°C). In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar, and sour cream until smooth. Add eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla until fully combined.
  2. Spread cream cheese filling evenly over cooled crust. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until center is just set. Cool completely on a wire rack.
  3. Meanwhile, in a saucepan, whisk together sugar, cornstarch, and water. Cook over medium heat until thick and translucent, about 3–5 minutes. Stir in gelatin if using, then let cool slightly.
  4. Gently fold sliced strawberries into the cooled glaze. Spoon over the cream cheese layer and spread evenly.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before slicing. Serve chilled.

Notes

  1. Use a 9×13-inch pan if needed—layers will be slightly thicker.
  2. For a mixed berry version, add raspberries or blueberries with the strawberries.
  3. Graham cracker crust can be used for a no-roll option.
  4. Top with whipped cream or chocolate drizzle just before serving for a fancier finish.
  5. Make ahead up to one day in advance and store chilled.
