• Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Roll out the pie crust and place it in a 9-inch pie dish, crimping the edges as desired.
• Step 2: In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Gradually add the sugar, mixing until well combined.
• Step 3: Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract until fully incorporated.
• Step 4: Divide the cream cheese mixture evenly into 3 or 4 separate bowls. Add a few drops of food coloring to each bowl, mixing until the desired pastel shade is achieved.
• Step 5: Spoon the colored cream cheese mixtures into the prepared pie crust, creating a swirling pattern by alternating the colors. Smooth the top with a spatula.
• Step 6: Bake the pie for 35-40 minutes, or until the center is set and the edges are lightly golden. Allow the pie to cool completely before serving, about 2-3 hours.
