Notes

I think the notes people include in their recipes make them more personal. If I write a note myself about a recipe, it will always be written in purple.

1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon dry mustard
2 tablespoons butter, melted

1/4 cup powdered sugar
2 tablespoons cream
2 tablespoons pineapple juice
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1 cup strawberries, cut into pieces

Topping:

1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla

For 4 pies:Crust:

1 cup (4 ounce) Wisconsin Medium Cheddar cheese, shredded
2 cups (8 ounces) Wisconsin Swiss cheese, shredded
2 cups (8 ounces) Wisconsin Monterey Jack cheese, shredded
3 cups flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dry mustard
1/2 cup butter, melted

Filling:

4 pounds Cream Cheese, softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 cup cream
1/2 cup pineapple juice
2 tablespoons vanilla
1 quart strawberries, cut into pieces

Topping:

6 cups heavy cream
1/4 cup sugar
1 1/2 tablespoon vanilla

Cooking Directions:

For Crust: Combine dry ingredients. Pour in melted butter; knead for 2 to 5 minutes, or until dough is workable.

Press dough into a 9 inch metal pie pan (or 4 pans for 4 pies). Flute top edge and prick bottom of crust with fork. Another 9 inch pie pan may be placed on each crust for the first half of baking, to minimize shrinkage. Remove pans to allow browning.

Bake in a conventional oven at 400° F for 15 to 20 minutes; or in a convection oven at 350° F for 10 to 15 minutes, or until crust is light brown.

For Filling: Blend cream cheese and sugar on medium speed of mixture until smooth and creamy. On low speed, gradually add cream, pineapple juice and vanilla. Continue mixing until thoroughly blended.

Fold in strawberries. Spread mixture evenly into the prepared pie shell(s). Chill.

For Topping: Whip cream until soft peaks are formed. Add sugar and vanilla. Whip until stiff. Top pie(s) with whipped cream. Garnish with seasonal fruit and serve promptly.
