Ingredients
For the Crust:
2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1/4 cup granulated sugar
For the Filling:
16 oz cream cheese, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup sour cream
Gel food coloring (pastel pink, blue, yellow, and green)
👩🍳 Directions
Prepare the Crust:
Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C).
In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until well combined.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch pie dish.
Bake for 8–10 minutes, then allow to cool completely.
Make the Filling:
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing after each addition.
Mix in vanilla extract and sour cream until fully incorporated.
Create the Swirl Effect:
Divide the filling into four bowls. Tint each portion with a different pastel gel food coloring.
Drop spoonfuls of each colored filling onto the crust, alternating colors randomly.
Use a toothpick or skewer to gently swirl the colors together, creating a marbled effect.
Bake and Chill:
Bake in the preheated oven for 35–40 minutes, or until the center is just set.
Turn off the oven and let the pie cool inside with the door slightly open for 15 minutes.
Transfer to the refrigerator and chill for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
Serve and Enjoy:
Slice and serve chilled for a beautiful, festive Easter dessert!
