Ingredients
  

  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 lb. package strawberries
  • 6 dessert shells
  • strawberry whipped topping for topping

Instructions
 

  • Remove tops from strawberries and slice the strawberries longwise in half. Place into a bowl.
  • Cover strawberries with half a cup of sugar and smash them with a potato masher. Place them into the fridge for at least two hours to overnight. This allows them to give more juice.
