Sour cream
Cream cheese
Blueberry Filling (21 oz. can)
Ready-Made Crust (Shortbread)
Whipped Topping
Powdered Sugar

I NEVER bake pies. My girl loves blueberry pies and I was hoping to make her one but I have absolutely NO idea what to do with all this stuff - I know I have to pick up regular sugar, but that's about it. How much of each do I use? Will this work with a crust that's already-made? Is it even the right kind of crust for a blueberry pie?

If you can help, I would appreciate it so much! I want to bake something good but I don't know how to use these ingredients, or which ones would be best. Measurements and times would be incredibly helpful. I don't even know if anything really needs to bake since most of the ingredients are ready-made.

Thank you!

If you have the filling and the ready-made crust, put all the rest of the stuff back. Pour the filling into the crust and put the new pie into the fridge to get firm. When you are ready to serve put whipped topping on each slice just before you serve it.

It is that easy.

If you want to make a blueberry cream cheese no-bake pie, soften 8 ounces of cream cheese, whip with 1/2 cup sour cream and 1/3 cup sugar. If you have it, also add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla or almond extract. Pour this into your prepared crust and chill for 2-3 hours.

Remove from the refrigerator and top the chilled cream cheese filling with the blueberry filling. If there's too much filling for the pie, remove some of the filler, the thickened juice that's mostly starch and sugar, and use mostly the berry part of the filling. (You'll want to use some, but it's not necessary to use all of it.)

Chill the pie again for a half-hour to an hour, and serve (with or without whipped topping or ice cream).

Hi-a cookie. Not sure how to help you with what you've got - here's how I make em. (Ha ha - now I feel like an Xtian answering an atheist question - "This isn't what you asked - but here's the RIGHT answer! - sorry! *grins*)

For the filling
Mix four cups of thawed blueberries
1/4 cup tapioca
1/2 cup sugar (more to taste)
Tasty spices if you want (like a pinch of lemon peel, some cinnamon, cardomom, anything like that - but don't overdo it!)

Mix together and let sit for 20 minutes

Pre-heat oven to 375

For an easy homemade crust

Mix 2 cups flour (for whole wheat use 1/2 c. whole wheat, 1 1/2 cups regular)
1/8 teaspoon of Baking Powder
1/4 teaspoon Salt
1/4 cup cold water
1/2 cup vegetable oil (I prefer Canola)

Mix all together - press into ball
Take a large half and
(heres the super easy secret part)
Take two pieces of Wax paper - and flatten the dough piece like a pancake on top of one - put the other piece on top and roll the crust between the two peices of wax paper!

Take the top piece off, but the pie pan upside down on top of the crust, and flip it over. Trim excess from around the edge.

Roll the second (smaller) half between the wax paper, and put it on top. Pinch the edges together.

Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of sugar over the top of the crust. Cut six small slits in the crust so it can vent

Bake at 375 for 45 minutes.

Hope she loves it - and loves on you!

Since you have canned blueberry pie filling, there's no need for sugar, cream cheese, etc., for a regular pie. Unless, you mean Blueberry Cheesecake, which some people refer to as cream cheese pie. I'll give you the directions for both.

For regular pie:
Place the bottom crust in the pie plate and place it in your refrigerator and chill it 30 minutes.

Put the pie filling in the chilled bottom crust of the pie pan. Dot the top with butter pieces. Put the remaining crust on top of the pie filling. Trim to 1/2 inch over the edge of the pan, and crimp the edges with a fork or your fingers. Transfer the pie to the refrigerator to chill until firm, about 30 minutes. Heat oven to 425°F.

Remove the pie from refrigerator. Brush the top with egg wash. Score the pie on the top with two perpendicular cuts (so steam can escape while cooking). Bake for 20 minutes at 425°. Reduce heat to 350°F and bake for 30 to 40 minutes more or until juices are bubbling. Let cool before serving.

For the cream cheese pie, aka Cheesecake:

2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
1 cup sour cream
3/4 cup granulated white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
4 eggs

Mash cream cheese until soft and creamy. Gradually beat in sour cream, 3/4 cup sugar, vanilla and flour. Beat in eggs one at a time.

Pour mixture into the crust. Bake in a preheated 325 degree F (165 degrees C) oven for 1 hour or until firm to the touch.
Cool and then remove cake from pan by loosening edges with a knife.

Place the blueberry pie filling on top of cheesecake. Chill until ready to serve.

All you need is the ready made crust and the pie filling.
Place the filling in the crust and bake at 350 degrees for 30-40 minutes to set the filling.When it's all bubbly on top it will be set.
Cool and top with whipped cream or serve with vanilla ice cream.

Thrice, if you still have time to run to the store. TAKE all that stuff back and exchange it for a Sar Lee frozen blueberry pie. Bring it home. take it out of the box. Take the pie (still frozen) OUT of the stor bought pie tin and put it into YOUR pie tin and pop it in the oven for the recomended time. Put the packaging into the trash, including the stor bought pie tin and TAKE OUT the trash. She'll never know the difference. LOL

Yes, it's cheating but then again, you've ALREADY cheated by getting the ready made pioe crust and ready made pie filling. So, why not go ALL the way and BLATANTLY cheat. LMAO

Rich has got it nailed, Thrice. If you want, you could sprinkle some powdered sugar on top of the filling once it is in the pie shell, but not really necessary.

Also, if you EVER want to explore recipes, the absolutely BEST and EASIEST site is allrecipes.com. The BEST. And you would probably find 50 different recipes (easy) to follow for blueberry pie!

(((Thrice))) ... When will you bake something for me? Oh, so sorry . . . I'm poaching!

EDIT: (((Vicarious))) ... will you marry me????

EDIT: Never mind, Vicarious. (((MARVIN))) oooh, Marvin!!! *smiles so sweetly* *bats eyelashes* Marvin, will YOU marry me??? *tee hee*

Mix the sour cream and the cream cheese together,. with some of the powdered suger (till it tastes good to you).. spread them in the bottom of the crust.

Pour the filling over the top. Bake according to the instructions on the can of filling. Let it cool and use the topping when ready to serve!
