For our Easter Dessert I wanted something luscious but not too time consuming. Here's the winner!
Raspberry Cream Pie
from http://jamiecooksitup.net
The only change I made was using a graham cracker crust instead of a pie crust. (Simply because with all of the other food I was preparing this was SO much easier!). You can find graham cracker crust recipes anywhere or here is mine:
Graham Cracker Crust
Place 4 - 6 graham crackers* and 6 - 8 vanilla wafers in your food processor. (or use all graham crackers) Pulse to make fine crumbs. Add together in a bowl:
1 1/2 C crumbs
1/3 C melted butter (not marg)
1T (scant) sugar
Mix crackers and sugar. Slowly add butter a little at a time mixing well with a fork. Keep adding butter till just damp and crumbly. You don't want it too wet and sticky. (Just enough so it will barely stay put when u press it into pie plate). Press into 9" deep dish pie plate. Only use the amount you need! You may have crumbs
left over. Continue by following recipe for filling and topping at Jamie Cooks It Up link!
All of her recipes are
amazing!
:) Enjoy!
* what constitutes "a" graham cracker? For me (and this recipe) it is a long rectangular shape with 3 lines that could be broken into 4 small rectangle pieces!
PS - later I will post our entire Easter menu! It was so yummy and was entirely from recipes I found through Pinterest!!
