Pudding And Berry Tart With Graham Cracker Crust Recipes

Steps:

• In a large saucepan, combine sugar, cornstarch and salt. Gradually add water, stirring until smooth. Stir in 2 cups of blueberries. Bring to a boil; cook and stir until thickened, 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat; cool to room temperature., Gently stir remaining blueberries into cooled blueberry mixture. Spoon into crust. Refrigerate, covered, until chilled, 1-2 hours. Serve with whipped cream.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 375. Combine graham cracker crumbs, butter and sugar in a bowl. Press into the bottom of a glass tart pan.
• 2. Bake crust for 8-10 minutes until crust begins to brown. Remove from oven, set aside and allow to cool completely.
• 3. Add milk, vanilla and pudding mix to mixing bowl and mix at medium high speed for two minutes until completely blended. Spread evenly over cooled crust. Place in refrigerator for four hours to set.
• 4. Just before serving, top with mixed berries of your choice. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Line a 9x9-inch square pan with whole graham crackers (break crackers, if necessary). Prepare pudding with milk as directions indicate; let stand 5 minutes, then blend with whipped topping. Spread half of the pudding mixture over graham crackers. Place another layer of graham crackers on top. Spread remaining pudding mixture over crackers. Add another layer of crackers. Then spread cherry pie filling over the top. Cover, and refrigerate 3 hours.

Steps:

• 1. Follow the directions on the box to make the vanilla pudding. When that's ready, mix the container of whipped cream with the pudding. In a 9x9 dish, start with a layer of whole graham crackers. Layer with the pudding mix. Create as many layers as you like, I usually have three layers of graham cracker and two layers of pudding mix. Be sure the top layer is graham cracker. Add the can of blueberry pie filling and refrigerate for two hours. If you are really ambitious, use fresh blueberries and create the topping from scratch. Also delicious but obviously takes more time.
