Strawberry Crusts

Prepare some small round buns that can be split into halves, buttered and warmed in the oven. Sprinkle powdered sugar over some strawberries, bruise them slightly and allow them to stand for a considerable length of time. Mix the fruit and sugar, cover the hot buns with this, allow them to get cold, and then serve in a glass dish.
