While I was searching for strawberry
desserts, I found this at all recipes. It uses frozen strawberries, but I would
think sliced and sweetened fresh berries would work too. Sounds delish!
STRAWBERRY CREAM SALAD
Posted by: Gail Fri, 9 Apr 2004, at 8:55 a.m.
Similar to a strawberry pretzel salad, but with a much better crust! I'm not
sure where this recipe came from; my aunt made it for years. Prep Time: approx.
15 Minutes. Cook Time: approx. 25 Minutes. Ready in: approx. 1 Hour . Makes 14
servings.
6 egg whites
3/4 teaspoon cream of tartar
2 cups white sugar
2 cups coarsely broken soda crackers
3/4 cup chopped walnuts
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
1 (16 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
1 (6 ounce) package strawberry flavored gelatin mix
2 cups boiling water
2 (10 ounce) packages frozen strawberries
Directions
1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. In a large bowl, beat egg whites until foamy. Add cream of tartar and sugar
and beat on medium speed until stiff. Fold in cracker pieces, walnuts and
vanilla. Spread into the bottom of a 9x13 inch pan. Bake in preheated oven for
25 minutes, remove from oven and set aside to cool.
3. In a medium bowl, mix together the cream cheese and 1/2 cup sugar. Fold in
whipped topping and spread atop cooled crust.
4. In a medium bowl, whisk the boiling water into the gelatin to dissolve. Mix
in strawberries and let stand for 15 minutes. Pour over the cream cheese layer,
cover and chill until serving.
