1/2 cup sugar
2/3 cup butter or margarine, melted
2 small boxes frozen strawberries
2 packages (3 ounces each) strawberry flavored gelatin
2 cups boiling water
1 package (12 ounces) cream cheese, room temp.
1 container (9 ounces) whipped topping
1/2 cup chopped walnuts
2 cups powdered sugar
Mix cracker crumbs, sugar and melted margarine together. Press into 9 x 13 inch pan to form crust. Mix gelatin, hot water and strawberries. Set aside to congeal slighty. Combine cream cheese, whipped topping, walnuts and powdered sugar. Pour into crumb crust. After strawberry mixture has thickened, pour over cream cheese layer to make top layer. Refrigerate for at least two hours before serving. Then refrigerate any leftovers.
My family enjoyed the Strawberry Delight. But it was a little sweet for me. We had plenty of leftovers and enjoyed them the next day. You can use already made piecrust instead of making your own. If you decide to do this, you would need to get two piecrusts to make up for the 9 x 13 inch pan. Which would mean you wouldn’t need the first three ingredients. Hope you enjoy it.
This does sound pretty sweet! Do you think you could try this with any other flavor of fruit/gelatin for something less sweet?
ReplyDeleteSounds very tasty. And i like the idea of the already made pie crust instead of making your own
