On to the recipe....which is....

Blueberry Sour Cream Pie.

Yu-hu-hum.

As I type this post in the late night hours...I am wishing I were feasting on this delectable, heavenly pie this very minute. This pie is so delightful I invited it to both my dessert plate, and then to my breakfast plate the next morning. 

Why I am admitting this flawed behavior to you, I do not know. 

I guess that's the sort of thing a girl burning the midnight oil is willing to share.

It was only one morning you know. I've enjoyed a sturdy piece of whole wheat toast every morning since, just for the record.

And now, just for the fun of it I am about to reveal yet another of my many flaws. Consider it Double Confession Delight.....

A couple of days ago my TeenSonMark brought me the phone. On the other end, asking to speak to me was my daughter BlondeEmily.

She was calling from a friends house with a very urgent matter.

"Mom, can you tell me another word for Oriental?"

"How about Asian." was my reply.

"YES!!!" she beamed. "That's the word I have been trying and trying to remember. It's my Webkin Password. Hallelujah. Thanks for reminding me, Mom. Now, can you put Mark back on the phone so I can ASK HIM HOW TO SPELL IT."

All I could say was...

"Hey, don't you think I know how to spell Asian?"

"Um....." came the reply "Well, no. Actually, I don't think you do Mom." she simply stated.

"Hmmmm. Well. It just so happens that Asian is actually one of the words I know how to spell. I suggest you take advantage since there are only a hand full in my repetoire, reppetoirre, repituare.......ok, alright............... I'll put Mark on."

 And that's what you have here folks. 

A Double Confession, from a Pie Lovin', Miss-spelling, gal.

Blueberry Sour Cream Pie

Time: 30 min. prep + 2 hours refrigeration

Yield: One delightful pie

Recipe adapted from All Recipes

PRINT RECIPE 

 

1  9 inch pastry crust, baked

Filling:

8 oz cream cheese, softened

1 C powdered sugar

3/4 C sour cream

1 t vanilla

1  8 oz package cool whip 

dash salt

 

Topping:

3/4 C sugar

1/4 C cornstarch

10 T water

2 T fresh lemon juice

3 C fresh or frozen blueberries

dash salt

1/2 t vanilla

1 T butter

1. In a large mixing bowl, or in a stand mixer beat the cream cheese until smooth.

2. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla and mix well.

3. Add the sour cream, cool whip and dash of salt. Mix until well combined, and set the mixture aside.

4. In a medium sized sauce pan mix the cornstarch and sugar together.

5. Add the water and lemon juice and stir until smooth.

6. Get that sauce pan on the stove top and turn the heat to medium. Stir in the blueberries. If you are using frozen blueberries, just pop them in the microwave for a couple minutes so they aren't ice cold when you add them to the sauce pan.

7. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. It should thicken up after a couple of minutes. You want it to be the consistency of canned pie filling. 

8. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the dash salt, vanilla and butter.  

9. Set it aside to cool. 

10. Pour the cream filling into a pre-baked pastry crust. When the blueberry topping is cooled to room temperature spread it over the filling. Cover with Plastic Wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours.

Note....this pie can easily be made a day ahead. Enjoy!
