Use a Store-Bought Graham Cracker Crust
If you enjoy the ease of store bought graham cracker pie crusts, then why take pie prep any further? You can find multiple brands of graham cracker pie crusts at most grocery stores. We prefer the Keebler graham cracker crusts.

How to Make a Strawberry Glaze Pie
This pie has three basic steps. If you wish to make your own graham cracker crust, then this recipe would have four steps.
It all starts with the strawberry glaze. We usually buy Marzetti, but you may have a different brand you prefer.
Cut and Glaze the Strawberries
- On a cutting board, chop strawberries into small uniform pieces.
- In a mixing bowl, mix the chopped strawberries with strawberry glaze.
Make the Cool Whip Cream Cheese Filling
- In a second mixing bowl, mix the softened cream cheese, ½ the cool whip, and the sugar together until well combined. (We like to use an electric mixer for this step.)
Put Your Quick Strawberry Pie with Glaze Together
- In the bottom of the pie crust, layer the cream cheese.
- Then, pour on top the strawberries mixed with the glaze.
- Finally, spread on the remaining half of the Cool Whip.
- Allow pie to chill in the fridge for at least one hour, although we think longer is better. (We leave ours to chill for 2-3 hours.) Garnish with a few strawberries.
So delicious! This recipe is one to keep!
