No Bake Berry Cheese Pie Recipe
This is my version of the delicious fruit tarts. I've used Raspberry Gelatin instead of a simple sugar syrup because it adds a wonderful floral fragrance and taste.
Ingredients
- 9" Deep Dish Pie Crust
- 2 - 8 oz. Cream Cheese
- 1 ⅓ Cup Sugar
- 1 ½ Tablespoon Vanilla Extract
- 2 Cups Berries (use all of one kind or mix e.g., blackberries, raspberries & blueberries)
- 3 Tablespoon of Corn Starch
- 1 ¼ Cup Water
- 1 Package Raspberry Gelatin
- 4 Drops Blue Food Coloring
Directions
- Prepare Pie Crust as directed on package for pre-filled pie.
- Make sure Cream Cheese is room temperature otherwise it may not cream well. Whip together with mixer ⅓ cup Sugar, Cream Cheese, and 1 Tablespoon Vanilla Extract until it is smooth and fluffy. Hold aside until Pie Crust is cooked and cooled.
- Prepare mixture to cover berries. Stir together Cornstarch and remaining 1 cup Sugar in small sauce pan. Slowly whisk in Water and remaining ½ tablespoon of Vanilla. Cook over medium heat, whisking constantly about 10 minutes. Put into pan with mixture, Raspberry Gelatin and Food Coloring. Stir and heat until mixture boils.
- Put Custard mixture into cooled Pie Crust, arrange berries on top. Spoon mixture (no need to cool) over berries just enough to cover. Do not pour unless you do not use Custard mixture and want only a berry pie. Otherwise, it will drown pie and be too much. If using with Custard mix, use ¾ Cup of water and 1 ½ tablespoons of Corn Starch to make mixture not to make too much.
- Chill in frig for at least 2 ½ hours. Can reserve this mixture for another pie if make full amount. Serve with whipped cream if only using berries.
