How to make fresh strawberry pie:

Prepare a 9-inch baked pie shell as directed on package; cool. Mash enough berries to measure 1 cup. Stir together sugar and cornstarch. Gradually stir in water and crushed berries. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until mixture thickens and boils. Boil and stir 1 minute. Stir in few drops red food color; cool.

Beat cream cheese until smooth. Spread on bottom of cooled, baked pie shell. Fill shell with remaining berries. Pour berry mixture over top. Chill at least 3 hours or until set.

Fresh Raspberry Pie: Substitute 6 cups raspberries for strawberries.

Fresh Peach Pie: Substitute 5 cups sliced peaches (7 medium) for the strawberries. To prevent peaches from darkening, use a granulated ascorbic acid mixture as directed on package.
