1/2 package (15 oz) refrigerated pie crusts (1 crust, unless you are making 2 like I did then just double the recipe)
1 quart fresh strawberries, divided
4 squares (1 oz each) white chocolate for baking
1 package (8 oz) reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup cold milk
1 package (3.3 oz) white chocolate instant pudding and pie filling (I'm having a hard time finding white choc pudding that isn't sugar-free, so I've been using vanilla pudding mix, because I used the sugar-free one once and it tasted awful having that artificial sweetener aftertaste!)
1 1/2 cups fresh blueberries
1 cup thawed, frozen light whipped topping (I always use the kind in the spray can, much easier)
Now here's how it goes:
Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Let pie crust stand at room temp. 15 min. Gently unfold and place crust into a pie plate, pressing dough into bottom and up sides. Prick bottom and sides using like a toothpick or something. Bake 10-12 min. or until golden brown. Cool Completely.
Rinse strawberries and pat dry on paper towels. Select about 8 strawberries for dipping; cut in halve through stem ends. Set aside. Slice remaining strawberries.
Beat cream cheese until smooth.
Gradually whisk in milk until well blended. Add pudding mix; whisk until mixture begins to thicken. (Honestly I didn't use a whisk, I just used a hand blender and it worked just fine...and easier too)
Melt white chocolate on the stove or in a microwavable bowl, until chocolate is melted and smooth. Don't let it burn! Dip strawberries halves in melted chocolate; place on a sheet of parchment paper , cut side down. Refrigerate 15 min. or until set.
looks really tasty I will have to try it. I love the pictures good job brittany!!!
