Triple Berry Cream Pie - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 1/2 cups flour
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    4 tablespoons cold unsalted butter, cut into pieces
    1/4 cup crisco vegetable shortening, chilled
    8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
    3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
    1 1/2 cups chill heavy cream
    1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
    2 cups strawberries, hulled and cut into quarters
    1 cup raspberries
    1 cup blueberries
Preparation
    Preheat oven to 400\u00b0.
    In a bowl, mix flour and salt. With a pastry blender or two knives, cut in butter and shortening until crumbly. Sprinkle with 3 tablespoons ice water; mix with a fork just until dough forms a ball (add water if needed). Form into a disk, wrap in plastic and chill for 30 minutes. On a floured surface roll out the dough into an 11\" round. Fit into a 9\" pie pan and crimp edge. Refrigerate for 10 minutes.
    Line crust with foil and fill with pie weights. Bake for 6 minutes, remove foil and bake until lightly golden, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool.
    In a bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar with a mixer on high speed. Beat in cream and vanilla, scraping down sides of bowl, until fluffy and well-mixed. In another bowl, gently mix berries.
    Spoon two-thirds of cream mixture into crust; smooth top. Spoon two-thirds of berries over cream. Mound remaining cream in center and top with remaining berries. Chill overnight.
