Personal Notes:
Taste your berries if they aren't very sweet, you might need an extra tablespoon or sugar.
Just make sure to cool them completely before cutting or they will be a bit runny.
These are incredible. I used butter instead of shortening . If I make it again, I may use half brown sugar and half white sugar. My other advice: Make the bottom layer of crust a little thicker than the top so the filling doesn't leak through.- sherylhammer.
