Description

Ingredients

• ½ cup melted butter
• 1 cup flour
• ¼ cup brown sugar
• 1 cup finely chopped pecans
• 2 egg whites, at room temperature (I recommend pasteurized as they will not be cooked in this dessert)
• 1 cup sugar
• 2 cups chopped fresh strawberries
• 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
• 1 cup whipping cream
• Fresh strawberries and sweetened whipped cream, to garnish (optional)

Directions

• Preheat oven to 350º.
• Place flour, brown sugar, chopped pecans and melted butter into a bowl and mix well. Pat into the bottom of a 9 x 13 pan.
• Bake for 20 minutes or till lightly browned. Cool to room temperature
• Combine egg whites, sugar, berries and lemon juice in the bowl of a stand mixer. Beat for 8-10 minutes till whipped and stiff.
• In another bowl, whip the cream until firm peaks form. Fold into strawberry mixture, then spread over the crust. Freeze for at least 6 hours before serving. Remove from freezer about 10 minutes before serving. Slice into squares and garnish with a dollop of whipped cream and berries, if desired.
