Strawberry Dessert








My mother-in-law fixes this pretty often. She says it so simple and quick. She had one fixed and sent some home with Dewayne for me. I am a big strawberry fan and loved it. If you would rather have blueberry, you can use blueberry pie filling instead of the sliced strawberries and glaze.

Ingredients:
~Crust:
*2 1/2c. graham cracker crumbs  
*1/2 c. sugar
*1 1/2 sticks butter
~Filling:
*1 (8-oz.) container cream cheese 
*1 lb. tub Cool Whip
*1c. sugar
~Glaze:
*sliced strawberries 
*1 pkg. strawberry glaze

Directions:
*To make the crust, combine graham cracker crumbs and sugar in a 13x9 in. glass pan. Drizzle melted butter on   top and stir to coat the crumbs and sugar. Pat crust out evenly in pan.
*Using a mixer combine the filling ingredients until smooth and spread over crust.
*Combine the sliced strawberries and glaze. Spread evenly over filling.
