Pie Recipes #230 - Wiley's Farm B and B - Blueberry Pie Recipes



My grandson, Tyler, asked me when I was going to make that wonderful blueberry pie that everyone in the family loves...especially him. Didn't I have any blueberries left from all the picking we did last summer somewhere in my freezer? I said I did and so I pulled out the time-worn recipe and once again made the pie that everyone loves...especially Tyler! ... Lynn Willey, Innkeeper

3 Tablespoons cornstarch
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/8 teaspoon salt

Hershey Bar Chocolate Cream Pie
~Submitted by Paula, who wrote these comments:
"This is one of those super fast and easy "don't have time for whipping up dessert" pies. "

2 boxes jell-o instant chocolate pudding
1 cup cold milk
1 large container (16 oz) vanilla cool whip (save out about 1/2 cup)
1 large Hershey's chocolate bar
1 graham cracker crust (plain or chocolate, your choice)

Mix both boxes of pudding mix with the milk. Fold in the cool whip. Spread into crust. Top with dollops of cool whip around edge and chocolate shavings in center. Best if chilled for about 1 hour, but can be eaten right away.

Looks fantastic and is sooooo good.
