Jenna's Sexy Pies #1: "A Little Wild, Wild Berry Pie"

Introducing a new series of pies: Jenna's Sexy Pies. These are all pies and tarts that are made for/given to Dr. Pomatter, which then leads to... some sexy time. I LOVE how they showed their affair progressing over time in the musical. The scene is especially great because it features some of the most delicious and creative pies in the show! This is pie #1 of many. A Little Wild, Wild, Berry Pie.

Those of you who have seen the show know that this is one of Nurse Norma's favorites! (And it looks like a pie that the actors (well, just Nurse Norma) gets to actually eat in the show. This pie is soooooo good. It features a layer of home made creme patisserie (a French vanilla custard), with a layer of whipped cream and topped with an array of fresh beautiful berries.

Many of Jenna's pie start with a blind baked crust... which bakes while...

...you cook up your creme patisserie.

Let your creme patisserie cool, then lay a generous portion at the bottom of your pie crust. 

Slice up some strawberries and lay over the layer of creme patisserie... pour a generous layer of freshly whipped cream over the strawberries.

Place berries over whipped cream. (This mound should be heaping, but I ran out of berries!) Brush with some melted apricot jelly for shine.

Slice and enjoy those sexy layers!!

​Looking forward to making the other pies in this series, "In The Dark, Dark Chocolate Pie", "Pineapple Upside Down Pie", and "I Wanna Play Doctor with My Gynecologist Pie"!
