I made this for Sunday treats and it was a success!

Strawberry Dream Tart

1  8 oz package cream cheese, softened
1  14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
1  5.1 oz package vanilla instant pudding mix
1/2 cup water
1  8 oz container frozen whipped topping, thawed
Brown sugar crust
1 quart fresh strawberries, sliced

Brown Sugar Crust
4 cups corn flakes
3/4 cup butter
1/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar
2 egg yolks
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp almond extract
1 1/3 cups flour

Step One - Make Crust

Crush cornflakes;  set aside.  Beat butter and brown sugar at medium speed until fluffy;  add egg yolks, salt, and almond extract, beating until smooth.  Gradually add flour and cereal.  Shape mixture into a ball; press into a well buttered, 12 inch pizza pan.  Bake at 375 degrees for 10 - 12 minutes or until golden.  Cool completely.

Step Two:  Make filling
Beat cream cheese at medium speed with an electric mixer until smooth.  Add next three ingredients; beat until smooth.  Chill five minutes; fold in whipped topping.  Spread filling over crust.

Step Three:  Arrange strawberries over filling.  Chill for at least 30 minutes before slicing.
