This is a recipe my mother has made for years. She always likes to tell people this dessert was served at John Steinbeck's house. It is a very light and refreshing treat after a heavy meal or on a warm summer night. The crust is cooked, but the top is frozen so it tastes similar to strawberry ice cream. This dessert needs to be frozen for at least six hours, so plan accordingly.
