Strawberry season's here so I thought I'd share one of my favorite strawberry dessert recipes. Prep time does not include time required to set. Ingredients:
7 tablespoons crushed tea biscuits or 7 tablespoons crushed digestive biscuits |
4 tablespoons melted butter |
1 tablespoon powdered sugar |
1 (100 g) packet strawberry jell-o gelatin dessert |
1 family pack vanilla ice cream (1/2 litre) |
1 teaspoon lemon juice |
1 tablespoon powdered sugar |
3/4 cup sliced strawberry |
sweetened cream |
fresh strawberries |
Directions:
1. For the crust : Mix the crushed biscuits, butter and sugar and press the mixture into a 20 cm diameter loose bottom tin. Place in the refrigerator until firm.
2. For the filling: Dissolve the Jell-O in 2 cups of boiling water and pour the hot mixture over the ice-cream in a large mixing bowl. Place the bowl over ice.
3. Add the lemon juice and sugar and beat continuously until light and fluffy.Add the sliced strawberries.
4. Pour the Jell-O and ice-cream mixture over the set crust. Put to set in the refigerator until firm.
5. When set, remove from tin and decorate with sweetened cream and fresh strawberries.
6. Serve cold.
