I used the small oval baker, but you could do this in any of the sizes really....

Take strawberries and slice using the egg slicer.
Place stawberries on the bottom of the pan (1st layer)
Take some coolwhip, soften it in the micro for about 10 seconds and pour over the 1st layer.
Place another full layer of strawberries over the coolwhip, and then do another layer of coolwhip.

I used the already to go chocolate dip we have in our market and microwaved that for 2 min. then drizzle over the top.....then chill for about 15-20 min in fridge, the chocolate hardens and makes a great treat.

It's fast and easy.....and my boys seem to LOVE it as it only lasts about an hour....LOL:eek:
