Lisser Sue's Strawberry Pie (Fruit Juice Sweetened) image

I've been thinking about this pie for a long time and when I saw 4 pound packages of strawberries for $4.99 at the store I knew today was the day! This is inspired by Recipe #262164 and Recipe #280726. You can also make the strawberry layer with 12 ounces of white grape juice concentrate and add food color. It's a little sweeter that way. I used 3 drops of the neon pink and 3 drops of red and got a really nice color.

Time 20m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 quart strawberry, trimmed and quartered
12 ounces apple juice concentrate (I used apple-kiwi-strawberry but Zaar wouldn't allow that description)
1 pinch salt
3 tablespoons cornstarch
8 ounces neufchatel cheese, softened
6 tablespoons white grape juice concentrate
1 pie crust, baked

Steps:

  • Mix strawberries through cornstarch and cook over medium heat, bringing to a boil then reducing heat.
  • Cook for 5 minutes, stirring to prevent sticking.
  • Separately combine the softened cream cheese and grape juice concentrate in a food processor.
  • Pour the cream cheese mixture into an already-baked pie shell.
  • Top with the cooked strawberry mixture.
  • Chill before serving.
