This beautiful pie is delicious too. Use Hot Water Pastry to make the pie shell. You can use a 9" pie pan or a tart pan with removable bottom.

Ingredients:

  • 1 baked and cooled 9" pie shell or 10" tart shell
  • 3/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 cup cornstarch
  • 1/8 tsp. salt
  • 1-3/4 cups water
  • 3 oz. pkg. raspberry jello

Preparation:

Combine 3/4 cup sugar, cornstarch, and 1/8 tsp. salt in a large heavy saucepan. Gradually stir in water with wire whisk. Cook and stir over medium heat until mixture comes to a boil and is thickened and clear. Add gelatin and stir until dissolved. Divide in half and place each half into a medium bowl.

Stir raspberries into one half of the gelatin mixture and stir the blueberries into the other half. Chill both mixtures until slightly thickened.
