Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.

  2. In a bowl, combine the strawberries, granulated sugar, cornstarch, lime zest, and lime juice. Mix well and set aside.

  3. Using a food processor, mix the flour, butter, brown sugar, and baking powder until it forms a loose crumb. Gradually add the cream while continuing to pulse.

  4. Grease a 9-by-13-inch pan with butter. Spread two-thirds of the flour mixture evenly on the prepared pan.

  5. Spread the strawberry mixture on top of the flour mixture, creating an even layer.

  6. Sprinkle the remaining flour mixture over the strawberry layer, followed by the turbinado sugar.

  7. Bake the bars in the preheated oven for 28 to 30 minutes, or until the top is golden and the strawberry layer is thick and bubbling.

  8. Remove the bars from the oven and let them cool.

  9. In a separate bowl, whisk together the powdered sugar and lime juice until smooth, creating the icing.

  10. Cut the cooled cobbler into small squares and drizzle with the icing.

  11. Place the squares on a platter and serve.
