Being the Blueberry-walnut Cream cheese pie came out good, thought I would do a Strawberry Walnut cheese pie. I used a 21-oz can of Strawberry pie filling. Had to make it more syrupy to pour it in a cheese pie crust, but had to get it thick after cooling off. So I used cornstarch and sugar with little water.
