Strawberry Pie
8 or 9" pie crust (I like graham cracker crust)
3 oz. cream cheese, room temp.
2 Tbs. sugar
1 qt. strawberries, divided
1 cup water, divided
1 cup sugar
3 Tbs. corn starch
Combine cream cheese with 2 Tbs. sugar. Spread over the bottom of the pie crust. Refrigerate.
Wash, drain, hull strawberries. Puree 1 cup strawberries; mix with 2/3 cup water and simmer about 3 minutes.
Mix corn starch and 1 cup sugar together; stir in 1/3 cup water. Turn up heat under strawberries and stir in the corn starch mixture. Boil about 1 minute, stirring constantly to make glaze. Cool.
Space uncooked strawberries over the cream cheese layer in the pie crust, saving 4 or 5 nice looking ones. Pour glace over berries. Cut the reserved berries in half and use to garnish the top of the pie.
Serve with whipped topping or vanilla ice cream.
Fresh or frozen raspberries, blackberries, blueberries or pitted sweet cherries may be used in place of the strawberries.

This one from EPI was very good...REC: Strawberry Icebox Pie with Almond Crust
Some of the reviewers had difficulties with the filling not setting up but it worked just fine for me. I also reduced the fat in the crust by 1 tablespoon. Yum!!!

Danish Dessert makes a great glaze for strawberries. It's found by the jello/pudding mixes and is
a cornstarch base fruity "pudding" mix. I use this all the time for fruit pies and fruit tortes and fruit sauces. It makes a no-fail strawberry pie. Graham cracker crust, pile in the strawberries and pour over the filling/glaze. a cream cheese layer is nice too like in the other post.

REC: Strawberry Cream Pie...
This is lusciously delicious. I often double it, and put it into a springform pan - it seems to hold up better when doubled. I've also made this with frozen raspberries, thawed and drained.
STRAWBERRY CREAM PIE
INGREDIENTS:
8 oz. pkg. cream cheese; softened
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
dash nutmeg
1 cup (+ additional for garnish) strawberries; sliced
1 cup heavy whipping cream, chilled
1/4 cup sifted powdered sugar
9-inch graham cracker crust
DIRECTIONS:
Combine cream cheese, sugar, vanilla and nutmeg until well blended. Mash 1 cup strawberry slices, stir into cream cheese mixture. Whip cream with powdered sugar until stiff peaks form; fold into cream cheese mixture; spoon into crust. Chill several hours or overnight.
Before serving, garnish with sliced strawberries in an overlapping circle on pie.
Optional: Serve with whipped cream and a mint leaf on the side.
