If you want a fancy, fun and easy to make dessert, try this layered gelatin dessert with strawberries. This is the second time in one week I've made this recipe and both times it was devoured. My whole family enjoyed it! Hope you will enjoy it, too!
- Ingredients
3 packages gelatin (1/4 oz each, unflavored)
2 1/2 cups milk
1/2 cup sour cream
1/3 cup sugar
2 tablespoons Nesquick Strawberry Powder
2 cups strawberries (frozen, fully or partially thawed)
1/2 cup water
1/4 cup sugar
strawberries (fresh, for decoration)
- Instructions
1 For the bottom layer. Sprinkle 1 envelope of gelatin into cold sour cream to soften. Heat 1 cup milk until hot. To the gelatin mixture, add 1/3 cup sugar and 1 cup hot milk. Whisk thoroughly until dissolved.
2 Pour the mixture into a glass dish (mine was 8*6 inch) and place in refrigerator for an hour.
3 For the middle layer: pour 1/2 cup milk in a bowl, add 1 envelope of gelatin and stir until mixed. Heat 1 cup milk until hot. Add to the gelatin mixture, then add 2 tablespoons Nesquick Strawberry Powder and whisk until dissolved. Let it cool to almost room temperature.
4 Pour the 2nd layer mixture over the sour cream layer. Place in refrigerator for 1 hour.
5 In a blender, combine thawed strawberries, 1/4 cup sugar and 1/2 cup water. Blend until smooth. Measure one cup of the mixture and heat it in a saucepan. Sprinkle 1 envelope of gelatin over the cold strawberry mixture, stir. Add the hot mixture from the saucepan, whisk until smooth.
6 Pour the top layer mixture over the Nesquick layer. Refrigerate until set (at least 1 1/2 hour).
7 Top with fresh strawberries (whole or sliced). Cut into squares and serve.
