01 Step

Recipe View **Prepare the Crust (30 minutes chilling time):** In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour and salt. Cut in the shortening and butter using a pastry blender or your fingertips until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Gradually add the ice water, one tablespoon at a time, tossing gently with a fork until the dough just comes together. Form the dough into a disc, wrap in plastic wrap, and chill for at least 30 minutes.

Recipe View **Roll and Bake the Crust (25 minutes):** Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). On a lightly floured surface, roll the chilled dough into an 11-inch circle. Carefully transfer the dough to a 9-inch pie plate. Trim and crimp the edges. Prick the bottom of the crust several times with a fork to prevent puffing. Bake for 10-15 minutes, or until lightly golden brown. Let cool completely on a wire rack.

Recipe View **Make the Filling (10 minutes):** In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and confectioners' sugar with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Beat in the vanilla and almond extracts. In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks. Gently fold the whipped cream and toasted almonds into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.

Recipe View **Garnish and Glaze (10 minutes):** Arrange the halved strawberries attractively over the top of the pie. In a small microwave-safe bowl, heat the red currant jelly in short bursts (10-15 seconds each) until melted and smooth. Carefully brush the melted jelly over the strawberries to create a beautiful glaze. Refrigerate for another 30 minutes to allow the glaze to set before serving.

For an extra nutty flavor, try using a combination of almonds and pecans in the filling.
If you don't have red currant jelly, you can substitute with strawberry or apple jelly.
To prevent the crust from getting soggy, brush the cooled crust with a thin layer of melted white chocolate before adding the filling.

    I was a bit hesitant about the almond extract, but it really complements the strawberries and cream cheese. I will definitely be making this again!
