Instructions

Ensure the baked pie crust is fully cooled before assembling.
In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream to soft peaks. Set aside.
In another bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth and lump-free.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture, keeping it light and airy.
Spoon the filling into the cooled crust and smooth the top evenly.
Arrange strawberry halves cut-side down in concentric circles on the filling.
Warm the strawberry jam or glaze until pourable, then brush over the berries for a glossy finish.

Notes

Top with whipped cream, lemon zest, or mint for extra flair.
Serve with rosé, citrus salad, or vanilla ice cream.
Make individual servings in jars or mini tarts for parties.
Refrigerate leftovers for up to 2 days to keep flavors fresh.
Freeze crust (without berries) up to 1 month and add fresh berries before serving.
Use a gluten-free crust to cater to dietary needs.
