Ingredients

1 cup graham cracker crumbs
4 tablespoons (1/2 stick) butter, melted
5 cups strawberries, rinsed, hulled, and halved
1 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 tablespoon water
3 tablespoons brandy

Directions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. In a mixing bowl, combine the crumbs and butter together. Press the mixture against the bottom and sides of a 9 inch pan to form a crust. Bake until golden and crisp, 7 to 8 minutes. Remove from the oven and cool completely on a rack. In a sauce pan, combine the berries, sugar, and vanilla. Stir over medium heat. until the sugar dissolves. Combine the cornstarch with the water and brandy in a cup and add to the berry mixture. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool. Pour into the pie crust. Cover and refrigerate for a least 6 hours, or until the filling sets.

don't waste your time with this!

I thought for sure all of these reviews had to be wrong so I tried it and it was a Strawberry Soup. A big waste of time. ... Find another recipe, is my suggestion. The flavor wasn't bad but in the end, I had to scramble to find another recipe and use MORE strawberries. I told FoodTV they should just remove this from their site.Read more

Yikes!
Rated: 2 stars out of 5

I don't understand how this can even become pie. I made the strawberries on the stovetop with sugar and cornstarch just like... the recipe said, but it turned completley liquidy! How can that even be pie anymore? I stopped there and used another recipe (Strawberry Crumb Pie, also by Emeril. That one turned out great!). Anyway, the "strawberry juice" that I got from this recipe was a nice drizzle on the other pie. I will make the rest into a strawberry smoothie tomorrow.Read more

I changed the recipe a little. First, I only added 3/4 cup of sugar. I also added an extra tablespoon of cornstarch. I... like sweet desserts, but not too sweet, so instead of the Brandy, I added limoncello liquor, which gave it a little tang. It still came a little runny, but tasted GREAT! Oh, it helps to make sure crust and strawberries are COMPLETELY COOL before putting in the frig.Read more

Something's Wrong...
Rated: 1 stars out of 5

I tried the recipe twice and neither time did it set up and slice nicely. The second time I tried more cornstarch and that... still didn't help. I should have read the other reviews before I tried it.Read more
