Strawberry Pie

I made this about a month ago and I've just been to dadgum lazy to post this recipe. So, I've decided to turn over a new leaf today and actually post some things on my blog. This is worth trying if you love strawberries. (Let it be noted that Billy Head turned his nose up at the thought of Strawberry Pie..... but once he tasted it.... well.....let's just say it didn't last long....What a Billy Head!!! He hasn't quite learned not to judge a pie by it's name)


1 unbaked pastry shell (9 inches)
3/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup water
1 package (3 ounces) strawberry gelatin
4 cups sliced fresh strawberries


Directions: Line unpricked pastry shell with a double thickness of heavy-duty foil. Bake at 450° for 8 minutes. Remove foil; bake 5 minutes longer. Cool on a wire rack. In a saucepan, combine the sugar, cornstarch and water until smooth. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Remove from the heat; stir in gelatin until dissolved. Refrigerate for 15-20 minutes or until slightly cooled. Meanwhile, arrange strawberries in the crust. Pour gelatin mixture over berries. Refrigerate until set.
