I made this pie for a boy friend long ago & for my husband. I wish I could have had a photo of their faces. They didn't want me to know how tough the pie was to cut and they were really fooled. Have a real pie prepared....so they won't be so disappointed. Ingredients:
pastry for double-crust pie, for top & bottom crust |
1 (6 ounce) bag cotton balls |
2 tablespoons grape jam or 2 tablespoons grape jelly |
Directions:
1. Place bottom crust in pie pan.
2. Fill tightly with cotton balls.
3. Cut a few slashes in top crust & place over cotton.
4. Crimp edges as you would for pie.
5. Drizzle a small amount of jelly on top crust where filling would run over .
6. Bake in 350 oven on bottom rack, watching very carefully till pie looks done. (I am not sure this would work in an electric oven).
