The most flavorful strawberry filling. Fresh or frozen strawberries work fine.
Ingredients:
4 cups strawberries, chopped fine
3 ounces strawberry jell-o gelatin dessert
2 -3 tablespoons cornstarch
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons strawberry extract
Directions:
1. add everything into a sauce pan and cook until it boils, stirring constantly.
2. Continue to cook and stir until everything is dissolved and starts to thicken approximately 5 mintures.
3. Cool in refrigerator until thick and set.
4. prep time does not include time in the refrigerator.
5. I have never tried this, but I think you could fold in 1 1/2 cups of whipped heavy cream to make a frosting.
6. I also wonder how this would work in a pie - if anyone is brave enough let me know how that works. ;-p.
