WOW! It sure is hard to believe summer is ending but alas...tis true, so...
I wanted to give you one last NO BAKE dessert before jacket weather hits!

This is a Taste of Home recipe so you know it's gonna be delicious.
I normally reduce the sugar amount and made this sugar free using xylitol, and Sukrin powdered sugar. (sugar free)
It looks like this - I buy it at Amazon. Yes, it's pricey, but some things are just worth splurging on, especially when it tastes as good as this does!
I love that it doesn't have an after taste and works nicely in my desserts...
baked or unbaked.
You can use fresh or frozen raspberries, so this is a tasty dessert to serve
all four seasons!
Another change I made was that it called for orange liqueur...I used 1/2 tsp. of orange extract instead. I noticed a little bit of 'zip' to the pie because of it too...soo good!
Hope you enjoy this delightful pie as much as we did.
CONTEST WINNING RASPBERRY CREAM PIE
CRUST:
1-1/2 c. crushed vanilla wafers (about 45 wafers)
(graham crackers work also)

2 Tb. sugar or sugar substitute
1/4 c. butter, melted
FILLING:
1 pkg. (8 ozs.) cream cheese, softened
2/3 c. powdered sugar
(or sugar free substitute)

(or 1/2 tsp. orange extract), or more to taste
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1 c. heavy whipping cream, whipped ** (See TIP below)
TOPPING:
3/4 c. sugar (or substitute)
3 (heaping) Tb. cornstarch
3 Tb. water
2-1/2 c. fresh or frozen raspberries, divided
In medium bowl, combine wafer crumbs, pecans, sugar and butter. Press onto bottom and sides of a greased 9" pie plate.
In large bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, liqueur and vanilla until light and fluffy. Fold in whipped cream; spread into crust. Chill until ready to serve.
In small saucepan, combine sugar and cornstarch; stir in water and 1-1/2 c. raspberries. Bring to a boil; stir for 2 minutes or until thickened. Transfer to a bowl; refrigerate until chilled.
Spread topping over the filling or dollop topping on each slice
when serving. Garnish with remaining berries.
It's a beautiful work of art!
**TIP - For best results, chill glass bowl and mixer beaters for 5 - 10 minutes before whipping so you'll get more volume.
