Strawberry Cream Pie

This pie is out of this world! Combining fresh strawberries with the cream and graham cracker crust make this the perfect cool summer treat! I love to find new ways to use the fresh fruits from each season and this pie gives you a sweet treat while still enjoying the freshness of the berries.

I tried both graham cracker crust options homemade & premade, in my opinion the store bought crust had a softer texture and flavor that I liked more than the crispier, harder crust of the homemade one. Totally up you on which you prefer!

So before all the fresh berries are gone, make this pie!!
