raspberry cream pie
I tried this pie at a restaurant years ago and fell in love with it. I came up with my own version and recipe.
Blue Ribbon Recipe
This creamy raspberry pie is quick and easy. We're big fans of raspberry, so our taste buds were excited with each bite. The bottom layer is a thick vanilla custard and fantastic on its own. The raspberry layer adds a nice punch of raspberry flavor. Cool Whip is the perfect light topping that brings the whole pie together. Add some fresh raspberries and it brings a plain raspberry cream pie to a dessert fit for a fancy occasion. A sweet summer pie!

How To Make raspberry cream pie
Test Kitchen Tips
We did strain the seeds from the raspberry filling and poured the custard into a bowl to cool instead of leaving it in the pan. A deep-dish pie crust would work for this recipe, too.
-
Step 1In a saucepan, combine the sugar, flour, and salt; gradually stir in the milk. Cook over medium-high heat and stir until bubbly. Cook and stir for 2 more minutes. Remove from heat. Stir in a moderate amount of the hot mixture into the yolks. Immediately place hot mixture back on the stove and cook another 2 minutes, stirring constantly.

Step 2Remove from the heat. Add the butter and vanilla.

Step 3Place plastic wrap or wax paper directly onto the mixture until cooled.
