Time 3h5m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 recipe unbaked pie crust
¼ cup white sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 (12 ounce) package frozen raspberries
1 ½ tablespoons water
1 ½ tablespoons lemon juice
1 tablespoon butter
½ teaspoon vanilla extract
1 ½ cups heavy cream

¾ cup powdered sugar
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
½ cup sour cream

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

  • Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove lining and beans or weights and continue baking until crust is golden brown, about 15 minutes more. Let cool completely.
  • Meanwhile, whisk sugar and cornstarch together in a medium saucepan. Stir in raspberries, water, and lemon juice. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil until thickened, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in butter and vanilla extract. Set aside to cool.
  • Pour heavy cream into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment. Beat on medium speed until stiff peaks form. Transfer to another bowl.
  • Combine cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in the stand mixer bowl. Switch to the paddle attachment and beat until well combined, about 2 minutes. Fold in whipped cream and sour cream until evenly incorporated.
  • Spread cream filling into the cooled pie crust. Top with the cooled raspberry topping. Refrigerate pie until thoroughly chilled, 2 hours to overnight.

Tips:

  • For a flaky crust, use a combination of butter and shortening. Grate the butter and keep it cold until you add it to the flour mixture. This will help prevent the butter from melting too quickly and making the crust tough.
  • Chill the dough for at least 30 minutes before rolling it out. This will help prevent the dough from shrinking in the oven.
  • When rolling out the dough, use a light touch. Overworking the dough will make it tough.
  • To prevent the crust from bubbling up in the oven, prick the bottom of the dough with a fork before baking.
  • Bake the crust in a preheated oven. This will help ensure that the crust bakes evenly.
  • If you are using a store-bought crust, pre-bake it according to the package directions.
  • Let the pie cool completely before slicing and serving. This will help prevent the filling from running out.

This contest-winning raspberry cream pie is a delicious and easy-to-make dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The flaky crust, creamy filling, and fresh raspberries make this pie a surefire hit.
