Raspberry Pie

Also known as raspberry ribbon pie.

I tried to rewrite the order of things somewhat more legibly, but for a longer explanation, here’s a version from the June 27, 1968 edition of The Canyon (Texas) News:

Raspberry Ribbon Pie

1 (9 inch) pastry shell, baked and cooled.

Red Layer:

1 (3 oz.) pkg. raspberry Jell-o
1/4 cup sugar
1-1/4 cup boiling water
1 (10 oz.) pkg. frozen raspberries
1 Tbsp. lemon juice

White Layer:

1 (3 oz.) pkg. cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sifted powdered sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
dash of salt
1 cup heavy cream, whipped

For red layer: dissolve gelatin and sugar in boiling water. Add frozen berries and lemon juice. Stir until berries thaw. Chill until partially set.

White layer: blend cheese, confectioner’s sugar, vanilla, and salt. Fold in small amount of whipped cream. Fold in remaining whipped cream.

Spread half of the cheese mixture in pastry shell; top with 1/2 of the Jell-o mixture. Continue repeating layers until all is used. Chill in refrigerator until set.
