  2. Roll out half of the dough on a lightly floured surface into a 12x15 inch rectangle about ⅛ inch thick and transfer onto a 9x13 inch baking sheet
  3. Press the dough onto the pan and into the edges to create a flat surface and trim the excess dough hanging off the edge of the pan
  4. Pour the Triple Berry Filling into the pan and spread evenly to cover the dough
  5. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of cubed butter over the fruit filling and press into the fruit
  6. Roll out the remaining ball of dough onto a lightly floured surface into a 12x15 inch rectangle and lay it to cover the berry filling
  7. Trim the excess dough from the edge of the pan and crimp the dough perimeter of the slab pie to seal the dough
  8. Using a small star cookie cutter, cut stars from the top of the slab pie to create a festive design and place the cut out stars on top of the slab pie 
  9. Using a pastry brush, brush the egg wash over the top of the pie dough 
  10. Bake the slab pie for 45-50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the filling is bubbling
