Cheese Pie

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Crust

    Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter until combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch pie pan to form an even crust.

  2. 2

    Make the Cheese Filling

    In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition until fully combined.

  3. 3

    Assemble the Pie

    Pour the cheese mixture over the prepared crust, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the center is set and slightly jiggles.

  4. 4

    Cool and Add Jam

    Allow the pie to cool completely at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Before serving, spread the strawberry jam on top of the pie.
