Mixed Berry Pie

My mother-in-law is a great cook, and when visiting her this weekend she made one of her most popular desserts in the family... a mixed berry pie.

This pie really tastes fabulous and looks extravagant, but yet easy to make.

My mother-in-law start out with a simple pastry shell that she prebaked and cools. While the shell cools of she makes the vanilla cream or custard. For my favorite recipe on vanilla custard click here. Let the custard cool off and fill it into the pie shell. Top the pie off with your favorite mixed berries. You can use both fresh or frozen. To add the final touch and crunch, sprinkle slivered almonds around the edge of the pie.
