In the Fallout video game series, the "Perfectly Preserved Pie" is a rare and sought-after item found in vending machines called Port-A-Diners. 


Players can attempt to activate the machine, and with an incredibly low chance, receive the perfectly preserved pie.

Its rarity and the humorous frustration associated with trying to obtain it have made it a notable and memorable element in the Fallout community. 


Despite the post-apocalyptic setting, the Perfectly Preserved Pie stands out as a quirky and entertaining anomaly, adding a touch of humor to the otherwise grim world of Fallout.

Sometimes I get so excited that I won the pie that I forget to take it out of the machine to consume it!


I have some pies stored around my camp as decor too.

The thrill of the claw machine activating...hoping the claw will immediately shift to the side to indicate that the pie will, in fact, be retrieved!

Ingredients Needed for Perfectly Preserved Pie:  New York Style Cheesecake Strawberry Ice Cream Topping Heavy Cream Powdered Sugar Vanilla

Step 1: Whip the Heavy Cream


To whip heavy cream for pie topping, begin with chilled cream.


Pour one cup of heavy cream into a large mixing bowl with 2 Tablespoons of powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla.


Step 1: Whip the Heavy Cream

Beat on Medium/High until soft peaks form. (4-5 minutes or so)


Then continue mixing on medium until stiff peaks form, do not over mix or it will curdle and turn into butter.


Spoon into a piping bag or zipper plastic bag and refrigerate.

Step 2: Plate the Cheesecake


In a homemade world, you can totally make the cheesecake yourself.


I just pushed the "easy" button and bought one.


Here's a great recipe for a Vanilla Bean Cheesecake made in the Instant Pot, and you can leave out all the vanilla beans for a smooth cream cake.


If you are buying it in, just place the cheesecake on the paper plate, the melamine plate or the stacked paper plates for the most authentic experience.

Step 3: Strawberry Topping


Spoon a generous portion of strawberry ice cream topping over a slice of New York-style cheesecake. 


Allow the rich strawberry flavor to cascade over the creamy cheesecake surface, creating a luscious and fruity base.


I tried to follow the puddling of the video game pie...but just topping it works great!

Step 4: Whipped Topping


Carefully dollop the freshly whipped cream onto the strawberry-topped cheesecake from the piping bag.


The fresh whipped topping is the literal "icing on the cake" as it gives it the best flavor.


A pre-mixed topping could be used as well.
