White Christmas Pie

Our family has made this pie for years. The recipe is actually from an old Betty Crocker cookbook. This one for Christmas then the eggnog pie for new year’s. The eggnog pie uses up the egg yolks leftover from the Christmas pie. Both are yummy made without the crusts in fancy cups
So delicious , have me thinking about the holidays already.

INGREDIENTS
To Make a 10” Pie Crust

• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 1 ½ cups all-purpose flour
• ½ teaspoon kosher salt
• 1 ½ teaspoons granulated sugar
• 2 ½ tablespoons cold vegetable shortening
• ¼ cup ice cold water, plus more as needed

Filling

• 1 envelope unflavored gelatin
• ¼ cup water
• 2/3 cup granulated sugar, divided
• ¼ cup all-purpose flour
• ½ teaspoon salt
• 1 ½ cups whole milk
• ¼ teaspoon almond extract
• ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
• ½ cup heavy cream
• 3 egg whites
• ¼ teaspoon cream of tartar
• ¾ cup shredded coconut plus more for sprinkling over top
• 2 cups heavy cream as topping
• 2 cups fresh diced strawberries, for topping
• ½ cup confectioners’ sugar to mix with strawberries

INSTRUCTIONS

1. To make the crust, cut the butter into pats and place flat on a plate. Place the plate in the freezer while you work on the remaining ingredients.
2. In thе bоwl оf a fооd рrосеѕѕоr, рlасе flour, ѕаlt and ѕugаr and рulѕе tо combine. Add cold shortening and pulse a few times. Add frozen butter and pulse until the butter is pea size.
3. Pulse while adding cold water, stop and check by pinching some dough and if it is crumbly, add a tablespoon of water at a time until the dough comes together.
4. Pour out onto a floured counter and press together into a disc. Wrap tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate 30 minutes.
5. Remove dough and on a floured surface, roll dough so that it is two inches larger than your standard 10” pie plate. A 9” ріе рlаtе саn bе used hоwеvеr thе filling will bе rіght uр tо thе tор. Plасе the dоugh оvеr the ріе рlаtе and gently рrеѕѕ in аnd uр аnd оvеr the еdgеѕ. With a knife or scissors, cut extra. Pinch the overhanging dough into a high ridge all around and then go back over and a make decorative edge, again, keeping it high. (I use thumb and index finger on one side and the knuckle of my index finger on the opposite side and pressed together to make a scalloped edge) Place the completed pie dough in the freezer for 30 minutes to set up so that the sides don’t collapse while baking.
6. Prеhеаt оvеn tо 375 dеgrееѕ аnd оnсе thе ріе рlаtе wіth thе dough sits in thе frееzеr fоr 30 minutes, rеmоvе, аdd раrсhmеnt and either pie weights or drу beans. (To make the parchment fit, cut parchment into a circle larger than the pie plate and make four slits a few inches long around the edge half way to center so when you place it in the shell, the slits overlap and fit up the sides.) Place in the oven for 20 minutes. Remove pie weights or beans, and with a fork, puncture the bottom in a few places to release steam and place back in the oven without the weights and parchment and bake for 15 more minutes. Cool to room temperature. The shell is now ready to be filled.
7. While crust is baking, make the filling by first blooming the gelatin. Place gelatin in the water in a small bowl to dissolve and set aside.
8. In a medium sauce pan, mix 1/3 cup of the granulated sugar, flour and salt. Add milk and whisk to combine. Over medium heat, bring to a boil and cook one minute.
9. Add gelatin mixture and whisk to combine over medium heat then remove from heat. Whisk in the two extracts then place sauce pan in a bowl with ice to quickly cool.
10. Beat the ½ cup of heavy cream to soft peaks and set aside.
11. Beat egg whites with cream of tartar and the remaining 1/3 cup of granulated sugar to stiff peaks and set aside.
12. Place the filling into the mixer and whip just to make the mixture creamy.
13. In a large bowl, place cooled whipped filling and gently fold in whipped cream, beaten egg whites and shredded coconut. With a rubber spatula, scrape mixture evenly into baked and cooked pie shell.
14. Whip the two cups of heavy cream to stiff peaks and using a large pastry bag with a large star tip, make a decorative top over the filling and then sprinkle some coconut over the top.
15. Dice strawberries and mix in a bowl with the confectioners’ sugar. The strawberries will eventually give up enough liquid to mix with the confectioners’ sugar to create a sauce.
16. Cut and serve pieces of the pie with strawberry sauce spooned over the top.
17. It’s simple and so good. Enjoy!
