No-Bake Fresh Strawberry Pie






This pie just says, "Summer"!


serves 8 ( 8 points +)

  • 3 oz. bittersweet chocolate, finely chopped
  • 2 tsp. canola oil

  • 2 T. seedless strawberry or raspberry preserves
  • ½ tsp. fresh lemon juice
  • 1 lb. small strawberries, hulled and cut in half



Place chocolate wafers in a food processor and process until finely ground. Place the chopped chocolate in a microwave safe dish and microwave 1 minute or until chocolate melts, stirring every 15 seconds. Add melted chocolate and canola oil to the food processor; process until well combined. 
Press chocolate mixture onto the bottom and up the sides of a 9" pie pan. Freeze for 15 minutes.


Meanwhile, beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla in a large bowl. Fold in Cool Whip. Carefully spread over crust.


Place preserves in a large bowl. Microwave 10-15 seconds or until softened. Add lemon juice. Whisk until smooth. Add berries and toss to coat. Arrange berries over pie.


Chill 30 minutes or until ready to serve.

  1. Gina I made this for a lunch party today and everyone loved it! I used a ready-made chocolate crust because I couldn't find the cookies, and sliced the berries instead of halving them. I could eat this every day and not get sick of it :)
