When it comes to dessert, sometimes the messier, the better. This Swampy Strawberry Pandowdy—an old-fashioned dessert that has a broken pie crust covering a mount of fresh fruit with lots of cream—proves just that. Make it with whatever fresh summer fruit you have on hand, just make sure you top it all off with the vanilla whipped cream. Dessert perfection, achieved.
