1

Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).

2

Let the pre-made pie crust sit on the counter for 15 minutes to come to room temperature.

3

Unroll the pie crust into a springform pan, pressing it into the corners and edges.

4

Cover the crust with a piece of foil, buttered on the inside, to prevent bubbling.

5

Add about 1 cup of beans as pie weights on top of the foil.

6

Bake the crust for 15 minutes.

7

Remove the foil and beans, then bake for another 15-20 minutes until golden brown.

8

Prepare heart-shaped cookies from a second pie crust and brush them with an egg wash made from egg whites, then sprinkle with red sugar.

9

Bake the heart-shaped cookies in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for 10 minutes.

10

Heat 1.5 cups of milk in the microwave for 2 minutes until scalding hot.

11

In a mixing bowl, combine 5 egg yolks and 3/4 cup sugar, mixing on high for 4 minutes.

12

Add 3 tablespoons of cornstarch to the egg mixture and mix on low until combined.

13

Slowly add the scalding milk to the egg mixture while mixing on low.

14

Pour the mixture into a saucepan and cook on medium heat, stirring constantly until it thickens, about 5 minutes.

15

Once thickened, remove from heat and stir in 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla, 1 tablespoon of heavy cream, and 1 tablespoon of butter.

16

Strain the custard through a sieve to remove lumps and cool slightly.

17

Spread the custard evenly in the baked pie crust.

18

Mix 1 tablespoon of strawberry jelly with 1 teaspoon of hot water to create a glaze.

19

Arrange sliced strawberries on top of the custard, then brush with the glaze.

20

Top with the heart-shaped cookies and serve.
