Submitted by Oolala

"Different from the others posted here. This recipe doesn't contain Jello but does have cream cheese, sugar, sour cream, vanilla extract, whipped topping (like Cool Whip), fresh strawberries and prepared graham cracker pie crust. I don't want to lose it and will make it soon. This requires 4 hours chilling time. This is from Parade magazine, June 14th, 2009"
