Filling:

1 c. sugar
3 tbsp. cornstarch
1/2 tsp. salt
1 c. water
3 tbsp. white Karo syrup
3 tbsp. strawberry Jello
fresh strawberries
red food coloring (optional)

Combine sugar, cornstarch and salt in saucepan. Add water and syrup and bring to a boil. Mixture will be milky but as it boils it will thicken and become clear. When thick, remove from heat and add 3 tablespoons Jello. Stir until dissolved. Allow to cool.

Crust:

1 c. all-purpose flour
2 tbsp. confectioners' sugar
1/2 c. (1 stick) butter

Blend together flour, confectioners' sugar and butter. Pat in a pie pan and bake at 375°F for 8-10 minutes or until light brown. Remove from oven and cool. Arrange strawberries in crust and cover with the cooled glaze.
