Gorgeous and easy to make, Strawberries and Cream pudding and Strawberry Cream Cheese tea sandwiches.
Ingredients
Strawberries and Cream Pudding
- 3 oz box Strawberry flavored gelatin powder or any red flavor gelatin. I used Jell-O
- 1 cup boiled water
- 6 oz Vanilla Yogurt
- 1 cup Whipping Cream
- 2 Tbls Sugar
- Strawberries to garnish
Strawberry Cream Cheese Tea Sandwiches
- 8 oz pkg. Cream Cheese softened
- 6 - 8 medium Strawberries cleaned, hulled and roughly chopped
- 8 slices of White or Wheat Sandwich Bread
Instructions
Strawberries and Cream
- In a medium bowl, mix the Gelatin powder in the hot water and stir for about 2 minutes until gelatin is dissolved.
- In a small bowl with the Vanilla Yogurt, add 2 - 3 tablespoons of the dissolved gelatin until blended.
- Add the Vanilla Yogurt mixture back into the remaining Gelatin and blend or whisk until combined well.
- Pour into prepared ramekins or dessert dishes. Refrigerate several hours or overnight until set.
- In a large bowl, using mixer, mix the Whipping Cream until soft peaks form. Add in the Sugar and continue to mix for another 1 - 2 minutes. Set aside to chill until ready to serve.
- Just before serving, top Strawberries and Cream pudding with Whipped Cream.
Strawberry Cream Cheese Tea Sandwiches:
- In a medium bowl or food processor, beat the softened Cream Cheese until smooth. Add in the strawberries and "mash" the berries until spread is pink and a few Strawberry chunks remain.
- Spread Cream Cheese mixture onto half of the bread slices. Top with remaining half.
- Using any shape cookie cutter, cut out and discard scrapes.
- Serve and Enjoy!
Notes
Strawberry Cream Cheese makes enough for 6 sandwiches. Any leftovers make a tasty spread over bagels.
