Description
A luscious Raspberry Cream Pie that connects joyful moments with family through its sweet and tangy flavors.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pre-made graham cracker crust
- 2 cups fresh raspberries
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
Instructions
- Prepare the Crust: If using a pre-made graham cracker crust, remove it from the packaging and set aside. If making your own, mix 1 ½ cups of crushed graham crackers with ½ cup melted butter and ¼ cup sugar until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie pan. Bake at 350°F (175°C) for about 8-10 minutes or until golden. Let it cool completely!
- Prepare the Raspberry Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the fresh raspberries (reserve a handful for garnishing), lemon juice, and cornstarch. Gently toss to coat; set aside.
- Whip the Cream: In a large mixing bowl, add the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whip the cream on medium speed until soft peaks form, about 2-3 minutes.
- Combine the Mixtures: Carefully fold the raspberry mixture into the whipped cream using a spatula until just incorporated.
- Fill the Crust: Pour the raspberry cream mixture into the prepared graham cracker crust, smoothing the top. Chill for at least 2-3 hours or overnight for best results.
- Garnish and Serve: Top with reserved fresh raspberries and sprinkle with extra powdered sugar. Slice, serve, and enjoy!
