Nag Diaries - the Foodie Edition - Strawberry Pie

I made strawberry pie - it was good. Check it out. 

Simple Strawberry Jello Pie
Ingredients -

9 inch graham cracker Pillsbury Pie crust pie shell (follow baking directions on box)
2 tablespoons corn syrup
¾ cup sugar
1 quart fresh strawberries
1 cup water
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons strawberry gelatin powder
1 package Jell-o vanilla instant pudding (may substitute Pistachio pudding)
1¾ cups milk
1 package cream cheese (softened)
1 tsp vanilla extract
½ tsp lemon juice

Preparation:

Wash and trim the strawberries. Set them aside.

Combine the instant pudding, milk vanilla, according to pie directions on box in a mixer. When mixed well add the softened cream cheese and lemon juice whip on med high till well blended.

Pour this into the pie crust and chill for an hour (I used a glass pie plate for the crust, the crust slid right out so I put it on a plate and stuck it in the freezer for about 10 minutes because I didnt have an hour to wait) before continuing on with the topping layer.

Combine the corn syrup, cornstarch, sugar, and water and bring the mixture to a boil (PLEASE USE A NON-STICK PAN)

Cook until clear and thick.

Add the gelatin powder and stir until dissolved.

Let the mixture cool.

Arrange the strawberries in the pie shell and pour the gelatin mixture over the top.

Chill until completely set and serve.
