Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

Preheat oven to 450 degrees F (230 degrees C). Line the chilled pie crust (unpricked) with two layers of heavy-duty aluminum foil, ensuring it covers the edges to prevent burning. (5 minutes)

02

Step
13 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 8 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the crust is lightly golden brown. (13 minutes)

03

Step
30 mins

Transfer the baked crust to a wire rack and let it cool completely. (20 minutes)

04

Step
2 mins

In a medium saucepan, whisk together the granulated sugar, water, and cornstarch until smooth. (2 minutes)

05

Step
10 mins

Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture comes to a simmer and thickens, about 10 minutes. The mixture should be translucent and coat the back of a spoon. (10 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Remove from heat and whisk in the raspberry flavored gelatin dessert mix until fully dissolved. (2 minutes)

07

Step
15 mins

Transfer the filling to a heatproof bowl, cover with plastic wrap (pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming), and refrigerate until slightly cooled but not fully set, about 15 minutes. (15 minutes)

08

Step
5 mins

While the filling is cooling, prepare the whipped cream: In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream with an electric mixer until soft peaks form. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, and continue whipping until stiff peaks form. Be careful not to overwhip. (5 minutes)

09

Step
2 mins

Arrange the fresh raspberries evenly in the bottom of the cooled pie crust. (5 minutes)

10

Step
5 hrs

Pour the slightly cooled gelatin filling over the raspberries, ensuring they are evenly coated. (2 minutes)

11

Step
5 mins

Chill the pie in the refrigerator until the filling is completely set, at least 4 to 6 hours, or preferably overnight. (240-360 minutes)

12

Step

Just before serving, garnish the pie with the freshly whipped cream. You can pipe it on decoratively or simply dollop it over the top. (5 minutes)

For a more intense raspberry flavor, consider adding a tablespoon of raspberry liqueur to the gelatin mixture after it's removed from the heat.
If you don't have raspberry flavored gelatin, you can substitute with strawberry or a similar berry flavor. Adjust the sugar to taste depending on the sweetness of the gelatin.
To prevent the pie crust from becoming soggy, brush the bottom with a thin layer of melted white chocolate before adding the raspberries.
