Raspberry Glace Pie

Ingredients:

Baked 9 inch pie shell
1 1/2 qts. red raspberries (I prefer black raspberries)
1 c. water
1 c. sugar
3 Tbs. cornstarch
2 tsp.lemon juice
1 (3oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
1 Tbs. milk
Whipped cream (optional)

Directions:

Be sure berries are clean. Place some berries and 2/3 c. water in saucepan; simmer 3 minutes. Run through strainer to remove seeds.
Combine cream cheese with milk and spread evenly over bottom of pie shell. Pour whole berries into pie shell.
Blend sugar, cornstarch and remaining 1/3 c. water. add to to cooked raspberry juice and cook until mixture is thick and translucent, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and add lemon juice
Carefully spoon the cooked juice (carefully skimming the top and putting it on top of the uncooked berries).
DO NOT POUR THE HOT LIQUID ON THE PIE ALL AT ONCE. IT IS FASTER BUT YOU WILL COOK THE OTHE FRESH BERRIES.
By spooning carefully the liquid will gradually seep down through the berries and you will have a fantastic pie that people will rave about. Chill in refrigerator for the glace to set.
Serve garnished with whipped cream and more whole berries.

Makes 6-8 Servings
