EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Draining strawberries upside down after cleaning eliminates the moisture best so the pie won't be soggy.

Just made this for a 4th of July block party and it went over GREAT!! Everyone loved it! I should have made 2 pies because it was completely gone in minutes!! Everyone said it was delicious & loved the way it looked!! I added some whipped cream puffs around the outside edge for some added decoration! I will definitely be making this again! Thanks "Betty" I'll definitely be back for more recipes! :-) P.S. Don't let the prep time scare you....it isn't hard to make this at all and your fridge does most of the 5 hr prep work! :-) ENJOY!
