1 (5 oz) package shortbread cookies
2 TBS sugar
2 TBS cold butter, cut into pieces
FILLING:
2 lb fresh strawberries, hulled
1/4 cup sugar
1/3 cup fresh lemon juice
1 envelope unflavored gelatin

Steps:

Transfer liquid to a saucepan and reserve berries. 2. Sprinkle gelatin over strawberry liquid and let soften 1 minute. Bring to a bare simmer, stirring until gelatin has dissolved. Add diced berries, then transfer to a metal bowl set into an ice bath and stir frequently until mixture begins to mound, 20-30 minutes. 3. Spoon 1/2 cup filling into piecrust and arrange reserved whole berries, stem ends down, onto filling. Spoon remaining filling over and between berries. Chill pie until filling is set, at least 4 hours. Serve with whipped cream on top. Makes 8 servings (slices). Each serving = 5 Weight Watchers points.

This pie was a disaster! The crust was too crumbly and the filling was too runny. I followed the recipe exactly, so I'm not sure what went wrong.

I had some trouble getting the crust to come out of the pan in one piece, but other than that, this pie was amazing! The filling was so creamy and delicious, and the strawberries were perfectly ripe.

This pie was a little too sweet for me, but it was still very good. I think I would use less sugar in the filling next time. The crust was perfect, though.

I love the combination of the sweet strawberries and the tangy cream cheese in this pie. The shortbread crust is also a nice touch. I would definitely recommend this recipe to others.
