  juice, butter, milk, and egg yolks until blended. Beat egg whites
  in a large bowl with electric mixer until stiff peaks form when
  beaters are lifted. Stir gently (fold) into lemon mixture. Pour

  clean and top is golden.

  Cool completely on wire rack. Cover and refrigerate up to 2 days.

  Up to 8 hours before serving: Arrange sliced berries on pie
  beginning at outer edge and leaving a 2-1/2" circle empty in
  center. Fill circle with reserved whole berries. Brush sliced and
