When you mix up the crust it will seem a bit crumbly but just use your hands and form it into a ball. It will come together nicely.
Just roll it out with a rolling pin on an ungreased cookie sheet or a baking stone will work too.
Bake for about 12-15 minutes or until lightly golden brown.
While it is baking and cooling mix up your cream cheese mixture and your strawberry mixture. Use 1 cup of smashed strawberries. I do mine in the food processor.
Cook the strawberries with sugar and cornstarch until it thickens and is glossy – will take about 5-10 minutes. Cool.

After the crust is cool spread with cream cheese mixture you mixed up.
Add strawberry mixture and sliced strawberries.
The crust ends up being a bit fragile so it can be a bit messy to eat. I just use my pizza cutter to slice it up.
