prep: 20 min / cook: 5 min
- 5 c. combination of strawberries, blueberries and blackberries
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 3 1/2 T. cornstarch
- 1/2 c. water
- Enough cream cheese to thinly coat pie crust
- 1 cup semisweet chocolate chips
- canola oil
- Baked pie shell
Mash enough berries to make 1 cup. Cut up remaining 4 cups of berries to desired size and set aside. Combine sugar and corn starch in a saucepan. Add mashed berries and water gradually. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly. Mixture should begin to thicken. Boil and stir one minute- mixture will begin to take on a thicker, more gelatinous texture. Coat pie crust with a thin layer of cream cheese. Add about half the contents of the saucepan to the pie crust. Add berry pieces and top with remaining heated berry mixture. crust. Refrigerate at least 3 hours. Prior to serving, drizzle melted chocolate chips over pie. I recommend melting chips in a double boiler. If the chocolate is too thick, add a tiny bit of canola oil to thin. Refrigerate until chocolate hardens and serve.
