  • Strawberry pie

    “The only hard part about this recipe is finding Danish Dessert.  It should be near the Jello and tapioca pudding mixes, or check out the Junket website.  One year I had to have it “imported” from Utah!  Danish Dessert brings back fond memories of midnight snacks in college.  The roommates could finish off a double batch, with snickerdoodles, while cramming for an exam or typing a term paper.”

    Strawberry Pie           
    1 Pint box fresh strawberries, stemmed and cleaned
    1 box Danish Dessert, strawberry flavor
    8”  Cookie crumb crust
    RediWhip  whipped cream  

    Prepare pie crust with 1 c. graham cracker crumbs, 3 T each sugar and melted butter, or try vanilla wafer crumbs, or crumbs from the cookie jar! Mix, press into pie plate, bake at 375 o 8 minutes.  A regular baked pie crust is good too.  Arrange the strawberries stem side down, then pour the cooked, slightly cooled Danish Dessert over all.  Chill several hours.  Serve with whipped cream.

    ~ I like this strawberry pie mainly for the graham cracker crust. Big strawberries are pretty, but hard to eat! Better to slice them into pretty hearts I say.
