                         Cereal-Mallow Shells
    2 1/2  cups          oven-toasted rice cereal
      1/4  lb            marshmallows
    2      tablespoons   evaporated milk
 					
                         Strawberry/Pineapple Tarts
    1 1/2  cups          diced strawberries
      1/4  cup           sugar
    3      tablespoons   cornstarch
      3/4  cup           pineapple juice
    1      cup           diced pineapple
      1/8  teaspoon      salt
    1      teaspoon      butter
    6                    baked tart shells
                         vanilla ice cream
 
 Shells: Melt marshmallows with milk over simmering water, stir until 
 smooth. Add to cereal, toss to mix. Press on bottoms and sides of 6 
 small, buttered tart pans. Cool. Remove shells from pans. 
 Tarts: Mix strawberries and sugar. Make a smooth paste of cornstarch 
 and a little pineapple juice. Add remaining pineapple juice, diced 
 pineapple and salt. Cook, stirring constantly until thickened. Add 
 butter, strawberries and more sugar if desired. Cool. Pour into 
 shells and serve topped with vanilla ice cream.
 Tootie's Notes: You can use chocolate ice cream or orange ice instead 
 of vanilla ice cream.
