Here is the perfect dessert to make to celebrate spring and the arrival of fresh sweet strawberries. For the crust-wary, don't worry. There is no need to bring out your rolling pin to make this stunning pie. It’s made with chocolate graham cracker crumbs, so they’re pressed into the pie plate. A great trick for smoothing out the bottom of the crust is to press it down using a flat-bottomed glass or measuring cup. A little cornstarch binds the juices of the strawberries to hold the slices together.
