Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Chocolate-Covered Strawberry Cream Cheese Pie.
Step 1
Begin by melting 2 ounces of chopped semisweet chocolate and 2 tablespoons of butter in a microwave-safe bowl.
Step 2
Set your microwave to 30% power and heat the mixture for approximately 2 1/2 minutes, stirring occasionally until it transforms into a smooth, velvety blend.
Step 3
Once melted, generously spread this luscious chocolate mixture over the bottom and up the sides of a graham cracker pie crust.
Step 4
To help it set perfectly, pop the crust into the freezer for a bit.
Step 5
While the crust chills, grab an electric mixer and whip the cream cheese until it reaches a creamy consistency.
Step 6
Gradually incorporate the sour cream, white sugar, and a splash of vanilla bean paste, mixing until everything is harmoniously combined.
Step 7
Retrieve the chilled crust from the freezer and pour the creamy filling into it, smoothing it out for an even layer.
Step 8
In a separate bowl, toss sliced strawberries with strawberry jam, gently mixing to ensure each piece is beautifully coated.
Step 9
Spread these vibrant strawberries over the cream cheese layer, creating a delightful topping.
Step 10
For a finishing touch, melt the remaining 1 ounce of chocolate with 1 tablespoon of butter in another microwave-safe bowl, heating it for about 1 minute until it’s silky smooth.
Step 11
Drizzle this melted chocolate over the pie with a spoon, adding a touch of elegance.
Step 12
Finally, let the pie chill in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow all those delicious flavors to meld together before serving.
Step 13
Enjoy this delightful dessert that’s sure to impress!.
