Pour into large mixer bowl; press plastic wrap onto surface. Chill until set, at least 1 1/4 hours.

    Meanwhile, prepare Toasted Almond Crust: Line small mixer bowl or deep 1 1/2 quart mixing bowl with aluminum foil. Spread 1 cup (4 1/2 ounce can) slivered almonds on baking sheet; toast at 350 about 8 minutes or until golden brown, stirring occasionally. Cool; finely chop almonds. Thoroughly combine 1 cup vanilla wafer crumbs (about 30 wafers), the chopped almonds, and 1/4 cup melted butter. Press mixture firmly onto bottom and up side of prepared bowl; cover and freeze.

    After chocolate mixture has set and just before removing from refrigerator, combine whipped topping, pureed strawberries, and honey or corn syrup; set aside. Beat egg whites and cream of tartar in small mixer bowl until foamy; gradually add sugar and beat until stiff peaks form. Beat chocolate mixture on medium speed about 30 seconds or until smooth. Reduce speed to low; blend in egg white mixture.
