Cranberry Parfait Pie

By: BODERBOO

"Many years ago, I dreamed up this recipe for a contest. My family loves it as an alternative to the traditional Thanksgiving desserts. Frozen whipped topping may be substituted for the ice cream and topping, if desired. Frozen strawberries may be substituted for the cranberry sauce."

Original Recipe Yield 1 - 9 inch pie

Ingredients

1 cup cranberry juice
1 (6 ounce) package strawberry flavored gelatin
1 cup whole berry cranberry sauce
1/2 cup vanilla ice cream
1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crust
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/4 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

Heat the cranberry juice in a medium saucepan over low heat. Stir in strawberry flavored gelatin until dissolved. Cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 15 to 20 minutes. Remove from heat. Transfer to a medium bowl, and beat with an electric mixer until fluffy.
In a blender or food processor, finely chop the whole cranberry sauce. Mix in the gelatin mixture and vanilla ice cream until well blended.
Transfer blended mixture to the prepared graham cracker crust. Chill in the refrigerator 2 to 3 hours.
In a medium bowl, whip together the heavy cream, white sugar and vanilla extract. Pour over the chilled pie before serving.
