Two pies, for a different reason...

Yesterday's pie: Strawberry

Remember how I said there were two recipes for strawberry pie? Well here is the other one! It makes two pies, so get ready for two pies!

So start by blind baking your two pie crusts. Pretty standard stuff. Then, arrange 2 1/2 quarts of strawberries in the bottom of the crusts (points up looks pretty). Then, the filling goo:

1 cup white sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup boiling water
1 (3 ounce) package strawberry flavored gelatin

Mix the sugar and cornstarch up in a saucepan then add the boiling water and put it over medium-high heat. Stir until all of the cornstarch is completely dissolved. When the mixture starts to thicken, remove from heat and mix in the gelatin. Let it cool to room temperature and split the goo between the two pies. Chill for a few hours, until the goo sets.

Yummy pie! I personally preferred the other recipe, but this may be because I kinda borked this one. I used 1 1/2 quarts of strawberries, and when pouring the boiling water into the sugar and stuff, I made a big mess and burned my hand a bit. In any case, it is yummy and strawberry-ful and sweet. So celebrate good pies, come on!
