Italian strawberry pie
Description
The recipe won't take much time. For making the Italian strawberry pie, you can use ready-made puff pastry or make it yourself. I prefer making it from scratch. Traditional mascarpone cheese is popular in Italian desserts. By the way, strawberries can be either fresh or frozen. Serve with tea or coffee.
