It's one of my favorites! The original recipe was a Pillsbury Bake-Off winner; this is my variation. For an easier version of this pie, buy a jar of best-quality lemon curd and make Updated Lemon Truffle Pie. INGREDIENTS:
PREPARATION:Make Hot Water Pastry one-crust version, blind-bake, and cool completely.
Beat egg yolks in a small bowl. Combine sugar, cornstarch and flour in a heavy saucepan. Using a wire whisk, stir in water and orange juice until smooth. Cook this mixture over medium heat until boiling, stirring constantly. Cook and stir for 2 minutes. Stir 1/4 cup of cooked mixture into egg yolks and blend with wire whisk until smooth. Return egg yolk mixture to saucepan and cook 2 more minutes, stirring constantly with whisk. Remove from heat and stir in butter, salt, and lemon juice. Transfer 1/2 cup of the cooked lemon filling to a small bowl with the white chocolate chips. Set rest of lemon filling aside. Microwave the chip mixture on low 1-2 minutes or until chips are melted, stirring until smooth. Beat cream cheese and add vanilla chip-lemon filling mixture and beat well. Spread over cooled crust. Spoon remaining lemon mixture over the cream cheese layer and spread evenly. Refrigerate 4 hours to set. Top with raspberries, then slice to serve. 8 servings New posts to the Busy Cooks forums: |
