Ingredients

• 1.5 cups Graham cracker crumbs
• 0.25 cup Granulated sugar
• 6 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 3 cups Fresh cranberries
• 1 cup Granulated sugar
• 0.5 cup Water
• 0.25 cup Freshly squeezed orange juice
• 1 teaspoon Orange zest
• 1.5 cups Whipping cream, chilled
• 2 tablespoons Powdered sugar
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
• 0 Fresh cranberries or orange slices (optional garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until the texture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

Press the graham cracker mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan to form the crust. Bake for 8-10 minutes, then let it cool completely.

Step 4

In a medium saucepan, combine the fresh cranberries, 1 cup granulated sugar, water, orange juice, and orange zest. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the cranberries pop and the mixture thickens (about 8-10 minutes). Remove from heat and let the mixture cool to room temperature.

Step 5

Once the cranberry mixture has cooled, use a blender or food processor to puree it until smooth. Set it aside.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, whip the chilled heavy cream with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.

Step 7

Gently fold the whipped cream into the cranberry puree, a little at a time, until fully combined to create a light and fluffy filling.

Step 8

Spoon the cranberry cream mixture into the cooled graham cracker crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 9

Freeze the pie for at least 4 hours, or until firm.

Step 10

Before serving, let the pie sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes to soften slightly. Optionally, garnish with fresh cranberries or orange slices for decoration.

Step 11

Slice, serve, and enjoy your Frosty Cranberry Pie!
