The Strawberry Pie I have made in the past was always so runny you had to almost use a bowl to eat it! But this pie held together very nicely.
Yum! Yum! Yum!!
CHOCOLATE COVERED PIE:
*1 quart fresh strawberries, sliced
*1 (8oz) package of cream cheese, room temperature
*1 cup confectioners sugar
*2 cups white chocolate chips
*1 cup milk chocolate chips
*1 cup heavy cream
*1 teaspoon vanilla extract
*1 chocolate pie crust (like Oreo)
I didn't cook my crust, it held together really well.
Melt 3/4 cup of of the white chocolate chips in the microwave (30 second intervals)for about 1-2 minutes, being careful not to burn. Set aside.
Beat the heavy cream, vanilla extract, & 1/2 cup of the confectioners sugar with an electric mixer in a bowl until it becomes thick.
In a separate bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, the other 1/2 cup of confectioners sugar, & the cup of melted white chocolate.Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.
Spread the cream into the chocolate pie crust. (I recommend not putting all of the cream in the crust at first. There is a lot of cream and it will overflow as you stuff in the quart of strawberries.) Then, press the sliced berries into the mixture ALL over it. Find every single available nook & cranny, and shove a berry in it!
Melt the remaining white chocolate in one bowl & melt the milk chocolate in another. Drizzle the melted milk chocolate on first…then the white chocolate.
Refridgerate for a couple hours so the chocolate can harden a bit and Serve!
I found this recipe here:

I only used about 1/2 to 3/4 of the Creap Cheese and Whipped cream mixture, but I refridgerate the rest of it, because it makes a DELICIOUS fruit dip!! :)
Enjoy!
