Ingredients
- 8 ounces strawberries fresh or frozen, about 2 cups berries/1 cup puree
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons unflavored gelatin powder (you can use the full 2 1/2 teaspoons from a Knox gelatin packet)
- 3 Tablespoons water cool
- 1 7/8 cups heavy cream divided into 1 3/4 and 2 Tablespoons
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 Graham Cracker Crust packaged or homemade
- optional whipped cream fresh strawberries for decorating
Instructions
- Puree the berries and granulated sugar.
- Whip 1 3/4 cup of the heavy cream until lightly thickened (there will be 2 Tablespoons left). Whip in powdered sugar and vanilla for a few seconds, just until blended in.
- Combine gelatin and cool water in small saucepan. Let stand until thick, about 5 minutes. Place over low heat, stirring constantly just until gelatin dissolves (it will be clear when dissolved). Don't let it get too hot. Remove from heat and stir in the remaining 2 Tablespoons of heavy cream
- While beating slowly, gradually add gelatin mixture to whipped cream. Whip at high speed until stiff.
- Fold in pureed berries then pour into graham cracker crust and smooth the top. Decorate with fresh strawberries and whipped cream (see note) if desired.
- Pie can be eaten immediately but will thicken more if refrigerated for a few hours or overnight.

Notes
