recipe questions (cherry breeze pie) - ragnhild

[Guest guest]

hi ragnhild,

 

you didn't ask stupid questions at all.

 

14 ounces is the amount for the sweetened condensed

milk.

 

i don't know what you could use for a substitute for

cherry pie filling. it has cherries, sugar, and a

bunch of artifical stuff. it's thick, red, and very

sweet. here's a pic and ingredient list:

hope this helps. feel free to ask anymore questions

if you have them.....

Cherry pie filling can also be made from pitted cherries, a bit of

cornstarch, a drop of almond extract, and a bit of juice (easy if you

buy your cherries in a jar). I will find my recipe.

Yeah, Amy is right. i like to make my own cherry pie

filling; i used to have a tart cherry tree at my other

house. But most people can find cans of the tart pie

cherries in the store. Those are way easier and

already pitted. i always added some sugar, cornstarch

or tapioca [did i spell that right?], and almond extract.

You can even add some red food coloring if it isn't red

enough, but just a drop or two works... less is more.
