My
ingredient list
This recipe is a little
harder to make than most of
the other recipes because
it has several steps.
But I have faith that
you can do it!
Place frozen strawberries and sugar in a strainer over a large
bowl and let them thaw. Collect the juice that will drip out of them until you have 3/4 cup of juice in your bowl. You will need to mash them to get as much juice out as possible. If the frozen strawberries are sugar free, add an additional 1/3 cup of sugar to the mixture.
Dissolve Jello mix and salt in 1 cup boiling water and stir well. Add 3/4 cup of the strawberry liquid and lemon juice.
Refrigerate until it starts to thicken (about 2 hours). The Jello should not be completely set, but rather, the mixture should have the texture of a sauce.
Whip the mixture into a froth with an electric mixer.
Add the drained strawberries to the mixture and stir with a spoon.
In a separate bowl, beat whipping cream until creamy peaks form (avoid letting the cream turn into butter!). Stir into Jello mixture with a spoon.
Divide the mixture into small cups or bowls
and refrigerate until ready to serve.
You can decorate
your dessert with fresh strawberries
and add whipped cream
if you want!
When I was little, it was my favourite dessert and
my mom always made it
for me on my birthday!
