"As viscous as motor oil swirled in a swamp, redolent of burnt bell peppers nested in by incontinent mice and a finish reminiscent of the dregs of a stale can of Coca-Cola that someone has been using as an ashtray. Not a bad drink, though."--Excerpt from "The Moose Turd Wine Tasting" by T. A. Nonymous

Directions:
Ansley’s pie crust recipe can be baked into two single-crust 9-inch pie crust shells (prick a lot of holes on bottom and sides and bake at 475 degrees 8 – 12 minutes, or until golden). Use just one of the pie crust shells for the recipe below (or double the filling recipe).

For the filling, crush 2 cups strawberries in a medium saucepan. Add the cornstarch, sugar, and lemon juice.

Cook mixture over moderate heat, stirring, until clear and thickened. Cool.

Slice 2 more cups of strawberries. Fold the berries into the cooled mixture and dump the whole thing into the crust. Refrigerate until well chilled. Garnish with whipped cream before serving.

Personal Notes:
I found this recipe in an old Good Housekeeping cookbook many years ago. It works for all kinds of berries.
