List of Ingredients
Sky-High Strawberry Pie
3 quarts fresh strawberries, divided
1 1/2 cups sugar
6 Tablespoons cornstarch
2/3 cup water
Red food coloring, optional
1 deep-dish pastry shell (10 inches), baked
1 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 Tablespoons instant vanilla pudding mix
Recipe
In a large bowl, mash enough berries to equal 3 cups. In a saucepan,
combine the sugar and cornstarch. Stir in the mashed berries and
water; mix well. Bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring
constantly. Cook and stir for 2 minutes. Remove from the heat; add
food coloring if desired. Pour into a large bowl. Chill for 20
minutes, stirring occasionally, until mixture is just slightly warm.
Fold in the remaining berries. Pile into pie shell. Chill for 2-3
hours. In a small mixing bowl, whip cream until soft peaks form.
Sprinkle pudding mix over cream and whip until stiff. Pipe around
edge of pie or dollop on individual slices.
