Sugar-Free Chocolate Covered Cherry Pie
ingredients:
9" pie crust, brushed with egg whites, baked and cooled
cherry ingredients:
1/4 - 1/3 cup all fruit cherry jam
pudding ingredients:
3 1/2 cups 1% milk
2 small (4 serving size) packages chocolate sugar-free instant pudding
topping ingredients:
1/4 cup whipping cream
1 packet Equal® (NutraSweet® as sweet as 2 teaspoons sugar)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon sugar-free hot chocolate mix (optional)
instructions:
cherry layer:
Evenly spread jam over the bottom and half way up the sides of the pie
crust.*
pudding layer:
Thoroughly beat together milk and pudding mix for 1 to 2 minutes. Gently
pour the pudding over the raspberry layer, and refrigerate. Allow 2
hours to gel.
topping layer:
For best results, wait until just before serving the pie to prepare the
topping. Beat the whipping cream until peaks form
and then droop. Add Equal® and vanilla. Beat until stiff. Spread a thin
layer of topping over the entire pie.
Dust topping with sugar-free hot chocolate mix.
*Or you may prefer to beat the jam into the pudding after the pudding is
thoroughly mixed.
