Preparation
Preheat oven to 325˚ F. Coat an 8×8-inch square baking dish with cooking spray and set aside. In a food processor, combine the pecans and graham cracker pieces.
Process until finely ground. Add the crumbs to a large bowl, together with the butter, flour and brown sugar. Mix well. Spread the crumbs evenly on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, stirring once half way.
In a medium bowl, combine egg whites and sugar. Using a hand-held mixer, mix on medium speed for 3 minutes. Add whipping cream and blend on medium speed for an extra 6 minutes. Add lemon juice and cream cheese and blend on low speed until creamy. Gently fold in strawberries with a spoon.
Press half of the crumb mixture into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with strawberry-cream mixture, followed by the remaining crumbs. Cover with foil and freeze for a minimum of 3 hours before serving.
