Easy, spring/summer dessert. Use packaged pudding or make your own - same with the crusts. This is a recipe that can be as simple or complicated as you choose. I love it in early summer when the strawberries are truly ripe and sweet. Ingredients:
3 ounces vanilla pudding mix, not instant |
2 cups milk (only dairy milk will work here) |
1 pie crusts or 4 tart shells |
2 pints fresh strawberries |
1/3 cup apple jelly or 1/3 cup currant jelly |
1 -2 tablespoon powdered sugar, as desired for topping |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 450.
2. Prepare pudding with milk according to package directions, set aside to chill.
3. If using pie crust, roll out one crust and place in a 9-inch tart of pie pan, trimming to fit pan. For individual tarts, use 4 small tart tins. Prick all over with a fork to vent. Bake 9-11 minutes or until golden, cool.
4. Fill tart(s) with a thin layer of pudding. Wash and hull strawberries, dry completely. Place full side down in pudding until tart(s) are completely full. Melt jelly in a small saucepan or in the microwave; brush liberally over strawberries to give them a lovely glaze. If desired, sprinkle with powdered sugar just before serving.
