Back to the beginning: Price and I met at YHS my freshman (his sophmore) year and dated for the next three years. After Price graduated, he joined the military and was stationed in Beautiful San Diego. Shortly after I graduated, we were married and had our 1st little man on the way: Preston Barrett Walling, born 2/2/07. We bought our 1st home in May 2009 and Little man #2, Ethan Jefferson Walling, followed on 7/29/09. As if life wasn't already crazy enough after that, we welcomed baby boy #3, Maverick Charles Walling on 11/20/2011 and our first girl (and Dog) Lucy in January 2012. We're still in San Diego, living one adventure after another!

Chocolate covered strawberry pie

Here's another pinterest recipe!! I took the picture off the website (mine did not look this pretty). But boy oh boy, it was DELISH!! So good in fact, that I made it on Saturday, let it set overnight and it was gone by Sunday afternoon! Price and I both have quite the sweet tooth! If you like cheesecake and chocolate covered strawberries, I strongly recommend this dessert!



1 quart fresh strawberries, sliced
1 (8oz) package of cream cheese, room temperature
1 cup confectioners sugar
2 cups white chocolate chips
1 cup milk chocolate chips
1 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 chocolate pie crust (like Oreo)

Melt 3/4 cup of of the white chocolate chips in the microwave (30 second intervals)for about 1-2 minutes, being careful not to burn. Set aside.

Beat the heavy cream, vanilla extract, & 1/2 cup of the confectioners sugar with an electric mixer in a bowl until it becomes thick.

In a separate bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, the other 1/2 cup of confectioners sugar, & the cup of melted white chocolate.Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture.

Spread the cream into the chocolate pie crust. (I recommend not putting all of the cream in the crust at first. There is a lot of cream and it will overflow as you stuff in the quart of strawberries.) Then, press the sliced berries into the mixture ALL over it. Find every single available nook & cranny, and shove a berry in it!

Melt the remaining white chocolate in one bowl & melt the milk chocolate in another. Drizzle the melted milk chocolate on first…then the white chocolate. Make sure the drizzles are thin and spread out because if you pour the chocolate on top (like i did) it is impossible to cut when the chocolate chips harden again.

Happy eating! I'm sure there will be more Pinterest recipes to come!

Lots of Love and Bunches of Hugs,

  5. My daughter asked me to make her a strawberry pie for her birthday in a couple of weeks and this is going to fit the bill.

  9. I saw this today, and just had to make it! I had some difficulty getting my white chocolate to melt...I have no idea why. So, I got it soft enough to mix in with the cream cheese mixture, but I did not drizzle any on top. Also, this recipe does not state whether to refrigerate or freeze this! So, I popped it in the fridge, and tried it later in the evening. OMG!!! Sooooo good! However, it was kind of a mess, so then I put it in the freezer. Thanks for sharing the recipe, very delicious. However, it really does not resemble this picture at all!

  10. I'm not trying to be a smart patootie but I agree with some of the comments above mine. I do not see a cream cheese filling and I do not see white chocolate. I really want to make this recipe as the picture looks, can you please tell us if the recipe matches the pic, if so...where is the cream cheese mixture and white chocolate? If not...Can you please give us the recipe that matches this picture?

  12. Yummy, but instead of melted choc on top which is hard to cut, I made a chocolate fudge sauce, which doesn't harden and can also be poured on individual slices, choc heaven. I also added the juice of half a lemon to the cheesecake mixture which helps it set.
