Strawberry Slab Cream Pie
You list 1 tsp of almond extract in ingredients.
It is not used in directions.
Is it added to whipping cream?

Does the Pillsbury pie crust come in the pie tin? Is it round? If so how do you make it fit in a rectangular own, piece it?
Chef in Training
it comes in a box in the refrigerator section at the grocery store. There are two pie crusts per box. I just rolled them out and trimmed as needed.

How far ahead can I make this?
I want to make the night before for a dinner after work... will that work or will it be soggy?
