While he was growing up, this was my husband's favorite Christmas dessert. When we married, his mother passed it on to me. I take it to family gatherings during the holidays and have yet had any to bring home! It's a cool recipe for summer as well. —Victoria Newman, Antelope, California

Ingredients

  • Dough for single-crust deep-dish pie
  • 6 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
  • Dash salt
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped
  • 1 package (3 ounces) raspberry gelatin
  • 1-1/4 cups boiling water
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • 1 package (10 ounces) frozen raspberries in syrup, thawed

Directions

  • 1. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to a 1/8-in.-thick circle; transfer to a 9-in. deep-dish pie plate. Trim to 1/2 in. beyond rim of plate; flute edge. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Preheat oven to 425°.
  • 2. Line crust with a double thickness of foil. Fill with pie weights, dried beans or uncooked rice. Bake on a lower oven rack until edge is golden brown, 20-25 minutes. Remove foil and weights; bake until bottom is golden brown, 3-6 minutes longer. Cool on a wire rack.
  • 3. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar and salt until smooth. Fold in cream. Spread half into crust. Refrigerate 30 minutes.
  • 4. Meanwhile, dissolve gelatin in boiling water; add lemon juice and raspberries. Carefully spoon half over cream cheese layer. Set aside the remaining gelatin mixture at room temperature. Refrigerate pie until set, about 30 minutes.
  • 5. Carefully spread remaining cream cheese mixture over top of pie. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Top with remaining gelatin. Refrigerate until set.
