How to Make Creamy Berry Pie

  1. **Crust:** Melt 6 tablespoons of butter in the microwave on high for 20 seconds.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ¼ cup sugar, and ¼ teaspoon salt.
  3. Add the melted butter to the crumb mixture.
  4. Stir until crumbs are evenly moistened.
  5. Press the crumb mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Use the bottom of a glass to firmly pack the crumbs.
  6. Refrigerate the crust while you prepare the filling.
  7. **Filling:** In a small microwave-safe bowl, sprinkle 1 packet of unflavored gelatin over ¼ cup cold water. Let stand for 3 minutes to bloom.
  8. In a large bowl, beat 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1 cup sour cream, 1 cup sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
  9. Microwave the gelatin mixture for 15-30 seconds on high, stirring until smooth and completely dissolved.
  10. With the mixer running, slowly pour the melted gelatin into the cream cheese mixture and beat until smooth and well combined.
  11. Pour the filling into the chilled pie crust and smooth the top.
  12. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or preferably overnight.
  13. **Berry Topping:** Microwave 2 tablespoons of berry jelly on high for 10 seconds to melt.
  14. Gently toss the melted jelly with 2 cups of mixed berries in a large bowl.
  15. Remove the plastic wrap from the chilled pie.
  16. Top the pie with the berry mixture.
  17. **Chocolate Drizzle:** Microwave 2 ounces of chopped semi-sweet chocolate and 1 teaspoon vegetable oil on high for 20 seconds, or until melted and smooth. Stir to combine.
  18. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the berry topping.
  19. Refrigerate for another 30 minutes to allow the chocolate to set slightly before slicing and serving. Enjoy!
