Mile High Berry Dessert

Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Mix the butter, brown sugar, flour and pecans until crumbly. Spread this mixture in a 9 x 13" pan. Bake for 10-12 minutes at 350°. Cool 1/2 hour then crumble and spread evenly back in the pan.
  2. For the filling, thaw the strawberries and drain . Mix with sugar. Beat 2 egg whites until stiff. Add the sugar and berries and beat 15 minutes. Beat the whipping cream and then add to the strawberry mixture, fold mixture until smooth and creamy. If you are adding the fresh strawberries, blackberries and blueberries, add them now*. Pour mixture over crust and freeze overnight.
  3. *Note: the original recipe did not have the fresh strawberries, raspberriess or blueberries. So, if you don't have the fresh berries, leave that part out. It was a delicious recipe to begin with. I found when I opened my carton of strawberries that there was more juice than berries. So, if you are buying frozen, get the ones in the bag, thaw and then drain.
