Instructions

  1. Place shortbread cookies in a food processor and process until you have fine crumbs. Add melted butter and sugar and pulse a few more times.
  2. Press the crumb mixture into a 9" pie plate and refrigerate while you make the filling.
  3. Bring cranberries, sugar, and orange juice to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat to a simmer and cook 8-10 minutes or until the cranberries are done popping and are cooked. While the cranberries are still hot, strain through a mesh strainer.
  4. Stir the gelatin into the warm strained cranberries. Cool to room temperature on the counter (about 1 hour). Do not refrigerate.
  5. Once the cranberry mixture is cooled, whip the heavy cream and powdered sugar in a bowl until stiff peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the cranberry mixture.
  6. Spread into the prepared crust and refrigerate until at least 4 hours or until set.
  7. Garnish with additional whipped cream and sugared cranberries if desired.

Notes

  • Ensure the Walkers Shortbread cookies are finely crushed to make an even crust.
  • Cranberry gelatin is preferred but can be hard to find. We also love raspberry gelatin although any red gelatin will work.
  • Strain the cranberries while they are hot and use a spatula to press them through the strainer to extract as much sauce as you can.
  • Ensure the cranberry mixture is hot when you add the gelatin (it can be reheated in the pot if needed).
  • Ensure the cranberry mixture is completely cooled before adding the whipped cream. If it is warm, it will melt the cream.
  • If the crust is difficult to remove, dip the bottom of the pie plate into hot water for about 10 seconds (being careful that no water gets into the pie). It should release easily.
