Phyllis' Kitchen--Lemon Cream Pie

Phyllis Perrin, of Caroline's Old Tyme Products, is a longstanding vendor at the farmer's market. She has been gardening and canning for decades and freely shares her wisdom, tips, recipes, and especially humor. And on top of that, she gives out samples of her many jams, jellies, curds, and pickles.  As a result, she usually has a number of customers at her stall, like this:



Lately she's been sharing an easy recipe with her customers.  In case you haven't stopped by her stall lately, here it is...

Lemon Cream Pie

2 c. whipping cream (1 pint)
1 envelope unflavored gelatin (1 T.)
1 8 oz. jar of lemon curd or other jam/preserve  (Phyllis' is highly recommended of course!)
1 baked pastry or graham cracker pie crust

Pour the cream into a mixing bowl and sprinkle the gelatin over the top.  Whip it until soft peaks form.



Slowly stir in the lemon curd.



Pour into a crust and chill for a couple of hours.



And that's it!  Very simple but delicious.
