How to Make Blueberry Strata Pie
- Drain 2 cups of mixed berries (blueberries, raspberries, etc.), reserving 1/2 cup of the syrup.
- In a medium bowl, beat together 8 ounces cream cheese, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 1/4 cup milk, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Set aside 2 tablespoons of drained pineapple chunks.
- Gently stir the remaining 1 cup of drained pineapple chunks into the cream cheese mixture.
- Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the bottom of a 9-inch unbaked pie crust.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 30 minutes to chill.
- In a small saucepan, whisk together 1/4 cup granulated sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and a pinch of salt.
- Gradually whisk in the reserved 1/2 cup berry syrup and 1/2 cup water.
- Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens and comes to a boil. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
- Remove from heat and stir in the drained 2 cups of mixed berries and 1 tablespoon lemon juice.
- Let the berry mixture cool slightly before pouring it over the cream cheese layer in the pie crust.
- Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the pie to set.
- Before serving, top with whipped cream (about 1 cup) and the reserved 2 tablespoons of pineapple chunks.
