Since I don't care for traditional pie crust, I usually eat only the filling of pie, writes Deanne Causey of Midland, Texas. That changed when I discovered this recipe. Boasting a luscious cheesecake flavor, this pretty pie gets creative with phyllo dough
Ingredients:
8 sheets phyllo dough (14 inches x 9 inches)
6 tablespoons butter, melted
2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 eggs, lightly beaten
2 cups fresh blueberries or 2 cups frozen blueberries
1/2 cup strawberry jelly
1 cup cool whip
sliced fresh strawberries (optional)
additional blueberries (optional)
Directions:
1. Place one phyllo sheet in a greased 9-in. pie plate; brush with butter. Repeat seven times; trim edges. Bake at 425° for 6-8 minutes or until edges are lightly browned (center will puff up). Cool on a wire rack.
2. For filling, in a small mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until smooth. Add eggs; beat on low speed just until combined. Fold in blueberries. Spoon into crust.
3. Bake at 350° for 10 minutes; cover edges with foil to prevent overbrowning. Bake 23-27 minutes longer or until center is almost set. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour. Refrigerate until chilled.
4. In a small mixing bowl, beat jelly until smooth; spread over filling. Spread with whipped topping. Garnish with strawberries and additional blueberries if desired.
