    How about a dessert that is 2-in-1? A delicious pie and cheesecake at the same time? Why limit yourself to just one treat when you can have it all at once?! Right?! This Strawberry Cheesecake Pie is a great summer refreshment and will make many people happy for sure… whenever I make it and serve it to friends and family it’s basically gone in seconds ;P

    I have strawberry plants here on my terrace for several years already. Together with a few other plants, these are the only ones that have been growing without any complaints. You could say I have a green thumb for strawberries ;) They survive the coldest winters and multiply like rabbits in a petting zoo. Starting with one plant my strawberry garden has grown a lot. Every time you turn around a new strawberry plant sneaked into a pot nearby and starts to take over everything… You could almost call them weeds, the way they spread. But since more strawberry plants also means more strawberries I am not complaining and enjoy the red little fruits all summer long…

    Last year, for the first time, the harvest was large enough for a (small) strawberry cake. This year it also looks very good again… but only if our little French Bulldog Bruno does not eat everything. He loves strawberries and raspberries more than anything else and eats everything he can spot as soon as you leave him alone for a moment. Little bugger… ;)

    Anyway. For this pie I had to use strawberries (and some raspberries) from the farmers market. The ones from the terrace were not enough… When buying strawberries I prefer the ones from local farmers. They usually have the most delicious berries and fruits you can get… ;) I don’t know why there is such a difference from imported products – strawberries from Spain, for example, are also delicious, but somehow the local strawberries from Brandenburg are always better in summer. Don’t get me wrong… I am not trying to bash Spanish strawberries and the farmers there ;)

    The Strawberry Cheesecake Pie is really easy to prepare. The base is a classic pie dough, slightly “improved” with a hint of vanilla liqueur (which helps to make the dough nice and flaky), then baked together with the cheesecake filling and on top of that a thick layer of strawberries enclosed in red jelly. Mmmmm…. so good!

    By the way – if you are not a fan of gelatin used in the recipe, feel free to change it to agar agar instead. Should work the same way. If you want to do the strawberry filling without any jelly you can make a compote with the strawberries instead. It will be soft and not keeping any shape when cut, but if that is not a problem for you… go for it ;)

    Unfortunately, this pie has been eaten for quite some time already. I guess I have to make it again soon… would really like to have a piece like this at the moment ;)

    DIRECTIONS / ZUBEREITUNG

    • English
    • Deutsch
    1. Mix the vanilla liquor and water and place it in the fridge for about 30 minutes before you start preparing the dough. Add the flour, salt, and cold butter in small pieces to a large bowl and mix. Cut the butter with a pastry blender into pea-size pieces. Add the liquid and rub everything between your fingers until the dough starts coming together. Add some more water if necessary. You should work quickly, so the dough does not get too warm. Wrap in plastic wrap and place in the fridge for about 30-60 minutes.

    2. Lightly grease a 9 inches (23cm) pie dish. Roll out the dough on a floured surface slightly larger than the pie dish, transfer to the form and press to the bottom and sides. Fold excess dough under on the sides and form a nice crust. Prick several times with a form and place in the fridge for another 10-15 minutes.

    3. Preheat the oven to 390°F (200°C). Place a piece of baking parchment on top of the pie crust and fill the pie dish with baking beans. Blind bake for about 10 minutes. Remove the paper and baking beans and bake another 4-5 minutes until the crust has a nice golden color. Take out of the oven and let cool down a bit. Reduce the heat of the oven to 375°F (190°C).

    4. Mix the cream cheese, sour cream (Schmand), sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract in a large bowl until well combined. Pour the filling into the pre-baked crust and bake for 25-30 minutes or until the filling is set around the edges, but the center is still a bit wobbly when you move the pie dish. Take out of the oven and let cool down completely.

    5. Hull the strawberries, wash and dry, then cut into slices. If your strawberries are big you should half or quarter them before so the pieces are not too big. Add to a bowl and set aside. Press the raspberries through a fine-mesh sieve and collect the pureed raspberries in a small bowl.

    6. Add the water to a small pot. Take about 6 tablespoons of the water and mix with the gelatine powder in a small bowl. Let soak for about 5-6 minutes. Add the sugar and cornstarch to the pot and mix until well combined. Add the raspberry puree and vanilla extract and mix it in. Heat up while stirring constantly until the mix starts to thicken and bubbles appear. Take off the heat and stir in the soaked gelatin. Place on the stove again and heat up once more until bubbles appear, then take off the heat and let cool down for 10-15 minutes. Stir from time to time so the mix does not develop a skin. Pour the sauce over the sliced strawberries and mix to combine. Pour on top of the cake and smooth out the top as much as possible. Place in the fridge for at least 4 hours. Serve with some whipped cream.

    1. Den Vanillelikör mit dem Wasser vor der Verwendung für etwa 30 Minuten in den Kühlschrank stellen. Das Mehl mit dem Salz in einer großen Schüssel vermischen und dann die kalte Butter in kleinen Stücken dazugeben. Die Butter etwas im Mehl schwenken und dann mit einem Teigmischer oder Messer in kleine, erbsengroße Stücke zerteilen. Die kalte Flüssigkeit dazugeben und mit den Fingern in die Butter-Mehl-Brösel reiben, bis der Teig langsam anfängt sich zu verbinden, ggf. noch etwas kaltes Wasser dazugeben. Je schneller man hier arbeitet, umso besser für den Teig. In Klarsichtfolie einschlagen und für 30-60 Minuten in den Kühlschrank legen.

    2. Eine 23cm (9 inches) Pie-Form leicht einfetten. Den Teig auf einer bemehlten Fläche etwas größer als die Form ausrollen und dann in die Form legen und an den Boden und die Seiten drücken. Den überlappenden Teig einschlagen (zur Innenseite der Form) und dann einen schönen Rand formen. Mit einer Gabel mehrmals am Boden einstechen. Für weitere 10-15 Minuten in den Kühlschrank stellen.

    3. Den Ofen auf 200°C (390°F) vorheizen. Ein Stück Backpapier auf den Teig legen und mit Backbonen/Teiggewichten auffüllen. Im unteren Drittel des Ofens für etwa 10 Minuten blindbacken, dann Papier und Backbohnen entfernen und weitere 4-5 Minuten backen. Aus dem Ofen nehmen und etwas abkühlen lassen. Die Temperatur des Ofens auf 190°C (375°F) reduzieren.

    4. Den Frischkäse mit dem Schmand (Sour Cream), Zucker, Eiern und Vanille Extrakt in einer großen Schüssel verrühren. Die Füllung auf den vorgebackenen Pieboden schütten und dann für 25-30 Minuten backen. Die Füllung sollte sich am Rand gesetzt haben, aber in der Mitte noch etwas wackeln, wenn man an der Form rüttelt. Aus dem Ofen nehmen und komplett auskühlen lassen.

    5. Die Erdbeeren vom Grün befreien, waschen und abtropfen lassen, dann in Scheiben schneiden. Sollten die Erdbeeren groß sein ggf. vorher noch einmal längs halbieren oder vierteln, damit nicht zu große Stücke entstehen. In einer Schüssel sammeln und zur Seite stellen. Die Himbeeren durch ein Sieb streichen und das Himbeermus ohne Kerne auffangen.

    6. Das Wasser in einen Topf geben und davon dann 6 Esslöffel abnehmen und mit dem Gelatinepulver in einer separaten Schüssel verrühren – für etwa 5-6 Minuten quellen lassen. In der Zwischenzeit den Zucker und die Speisestärke zum Topf mit dem Wasser dazugeben und alles gut verrühren. Himbeermus und Vanille Extrakt ebenfalls unterrühren. Die Mischung vorsichtig unter ständigem Rühren erhitzen, bis die Mischung andickt und anfängt zu blubbern. Vom Herd ziehen und die gequollene Gelatine unterrühren. Noch einmal zurück auf den Herd und erneut unter Rühren erhitzen, bis wieder Blasen aufsteigen. Vom Herd nehmen und etwa 10-15 Minuten abkühlen lassen – zwischendurch immer wieder mal rühren, damit sich keine Haut bildet. Die leicht abgekühlte Soße über die Erdbeeren schütten und alles vorsichtig vermischen, dann gleichmäßig auf dem Pie verteilen. Für mindestens 4 Stunden in den Kühlschrank stellen und dann mit Schlagsahne servieren.
