3. Crush the berries in the saucepan using a potato masher.

4. Add to the berries the sugar, water, and cornstarch.

5, Bring berry mixture to a boil. Once at a boil, cook for approximately 5 minutes until the juices run “clear” and not cloudy off a metal spoon.

6. Once the berry mixture is thickened and done cooking, stir in the butter until completely melted. Pour over berries in the pie.

7. Cool completely in refrigerator.

8. Once the pie is cool and you are ready to serve, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar and flavoring until very stiff and top the pie .

9. ENJOY as many pieces and you can in one sitting. Berries are only in season for a few weeks every year!!
