Knapp's Strawberry pie

Ingredients:

	3 oz cream cheese
	1 qt fresh strawberries; use more to make a fuller pie
	1/4-3/4 cup sugar; adjust sugar to personal taste preference
	3 tbs corn starch
	1 pie shell

Directions:

	Bake the pie shell and while still warm spread the cream cheese smoothly on the crust.  Add 1/2 quart of fresh whole berries, or as many as needed to form a bottom layer of whole berries one berry thick. 
	Prepare the remaining berries by mashing and cooking with the sugar and corn starch.  Pour hot mash over the berries in the pie shell.
	Chill and serve cold with whipped cream.

Variation use semi-sweet dark chocolate in place of cream cheese for the base; delicious, and you may need to put back in the oven briefly to soften the chocolate before adding the strawberries.
