"Better Than Sex" Strawberries
"Simple but sexy. This was in my local newspaper's FOOD section. Cook time reflects refrigeration time. I've been asked several times if this should be baked. Just to clarify, no, it is not, it is a refrigerator dessert. I'm not sure why it contains raw egg, but most Tiramisu recipes do too."

Delicious! The only change I made was that I used egg substitute in place of the eggs, it worked fine. Thank you for sharing this refreshing dessert. -
You shouldn't be recommending eating raw eggs without a serious warning. The volumn of the "BOX" of sugar wuld be helpfull too. -
I have looked for years for this recipe. My aunt made it when I was a child and I loved it. I thought it was called French Strawberry Pudding. I tried to make it from the memory of watching her. It was the eggs I left out. Thanks so much. -
I used a half a box of sugar and it was plenty sweet. Not sure what happened but alot of the vanilla wafer crumbs never got wet enough to be a part of the dessert. Loved the taste though as did my guests. I will be making this again but will experiment with the sugar, egg and butter mixture to make it a little runnier maybe. -
Very yummy! I didn't realize my 8x8 pan was dirty so I had to use a slightly smaller dish and less strawberries and cream as a result, but it turned out wonderful! I took it to my inlaws for 4th of July and there was almost nothing left! I only had 2 cups of powdered sugar and it was almost too sweet. I'd definetly not use a whole 16 oz box. I will definetly make this again! Sooooo Good! Thanks for the recipie!

I hate to bake (almost as much as I hate to vacuum!), and I'll go to great lengths to avoid having to make cookies.
