Hey foamheart, I tried to make this yesterday.....Failed.
Can you shed some light on what may have gone wrong?
1). You listed 2-3lbs of strawberries, how can you fit that into a 9” crust? I packed it with about 2lbs and it was over flowing.
2). When I put the ingredients into the saucepan it never thickened up. Was it supposed to boil or just get hot?
3). Is the 3 tablespoons of Jello right? I ask as my pie has been in the fridge overnight and it is still liquid.
Thanks in advance for any input you might have. I’m just not sure where it went awry.

How about snozzberrys? Would they work?You don't need any strawberries in the pie, just put in what you like. Don't cut the berries if possible. Look at the top picture, thats is only one layer of berries. Big berries work, small berries work, but you just want to fill the pie shell.
The purpose of the jell is not only to hold it together but to cover them all so they don't start weeping.
I really can't understand. The jello is enough to harden it, AND so is the cornstarch. Your jell should be thick before you pour it over the pie, then thicken even more as it cools. It should have the consistency of a cream pie. You didn't substitute flour for cornstarch did you? It has to be boiled to thicken, Cornstarch will thicken just before boiling, but boiling does not hurt it.
Sorry it didn't work for you.
