Strawberry Cheese Pie

I found this recipe in Mom's recipe box. Like many other no-bake cheesecake recipes, it is a great option when the weather is hot. This recipe is so easy and delicious, there is no excuse not to make it yourself. I followed the recipe and used strawberries to top the pie, but any topping could be used, such as any fruit you prefer. The pie would also be excellent drizzled with melted chocolate.

Making a graham cracker crust is simple, so resist to the urge to buy a pre-made crust. Dream Whip is a powdered whipped topping that can be found near the powdered pudding mixes in some grocery stores. Or, substitute about one to two cups of cool whip for the prepared Dream Whip.
