**Rosie/Duckie** Strawberry Pie

Makes 1 (9-inch) pie

 

Butter Pecan Crust:

1/2 cup butter

1 cup flour

1/4 cup brown sugar

1/3 cup chopped pecans (finely chopped)

 Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Blend butter, flour and sugar until crumbs form. Stir in nuts. Press mixture into a 9-inch pie plate. Bake for 12-15 minutes until golden brown. Allow to cool.

 

 

Filling:

1 1/2- 2 quarts fresh strawberries (I slice mine, but you *could* leave the whole. But, I wouldn't recommend it. Pretty much, go ahead and slice 'em)

1 cup water

1 cup sugar

2 tablespoons cornstarch

4 tablespoons strawberry jello

Mix water, sugar, and cornstarch and bring to a boil. Add strawberry jello. Set aside to cool. Fill baked shell w/ strawberries. Pour cooled mixture over this.

 

This is a definite "make ahead" pie. If you try to make it the same day, it won't set the way it needs to. Also, it's not a "set it outside during the bbq and serve it a few hours later" pie. Keep it in the fridge until cutting.
