This is one of my favorite desserts to make in the summer time.  It is quick, easy, and delicious.  I am usually a chocolate dessert kind of girl, but this really hits the spot.  Even the kids love it.

First, I take two small containers of strawberries.  You can use more, you can use less.  I clean them and slice them pretty small.  Set aside. 

Then, fill a saucepan with 4 cups water, 4 Tbls cornstarch and 1 cup sugar.  Cook on medium heat for twenty minutes, stirring occaisionally. 

  Take the mixture off heat and stir in a 6 oz mix of strawberry jello and stir until dizzolved.  Let cool.

 Now its time to make the crust.  You need 2 sticks of melted butter, 2 cups flour and 2 Tbls sugar.

 Mix together.

 Press into 9×13 pan and bake 15-20 minutes at 350 until golden brown.

 Let the crust and jello mixture cool completely.  Once cool, pour the jello mixture on top of the crust and refrigerate until set. Voila!
