Strawberry Freezer Pie with Marshmallow Creme and Brown Butter Graham Cracker Crust

I don’t think you could get a more summery treat than a  freezer pie packed full of strawberries and marshmallow swirled in. The inspiration for this freezer pie came from a local ice cream company that makes an insanely good ice cream strawberry brown butter ice cream with graham crackers and marshmallow creme mixed in. It is like a strawberry version of a s’more, which is exactly what I wanted this pie to be like.

Serves: 1 pie

Ingredients

• For the crust:
• 6 tablespoons butter
• 1 sleeve (9 full size crackers) graham crackers, processed to a fine crumb
• 4 tablespoons brown sugar
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• For the Filling:
• 3 cups hulled and quartered strawberries
• 1 cup sweetened condensed milk
• 3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• Pinch of kosher salt
• 1 cup cold heavy whipping cream
• 1 cup marshmallow creme  (preferably homemade)

Instructions

1. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Spray an 8 or 9 inch pie pan with nonstick cooking spray.
2. In a medium sauce pan, melt butter over medium high heat. Continue cooking until butter starts to get brown bits on the bottom and smells very fragrant and nutty. Remove from heat and let cool.
3. Once butter is cool, stir together brown butter, graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, and salt. Press down into bottom and sides of prepared pan to form crust. Bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to cool completely.
4. In a food processor or blender, add strawberries, sweetened condensed milk, and lemon juice. Process or blend until strawberries are pureed.
5. In a mixing bowl, add whipping cream and beat until stiff peaks form. Fold into pureed strawberry mixture, mixing until just combined. Pour into prepared pie pan.
6. Spoon or pipe marshmallow creme over the top of the pie, then using a knife, swirl into mixture. You don't want it mixed together, just marbled into the pie. Place in freezer and freeze for 4-5 hours, until frozen.
