• 4 Tbsp cornstarch
• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup water

Preparation

Step 1

Fill your pie shells with strawberries. Combine corn starch, sugar, water, and Jello in sauce pan and cook on medium to high heat until it reaches a good boil (about 3 – 4 minutes). Cool slightly. Then pour half the mixture over the strawberries in each pie shell. Chill at least 2 hours (or until firm), and top with whipped cream.
