Has anyone got any yummy recipes for strawberries? Anything really?
BIL came over yesterday and bought us some and I feel like it's just a waste if I eat them by themselves so I thought I should make something nice for DH (Plus I haven't cooked much lately and I'm feeling a bit guilty )
Ohhh I will be keeping a eye on this as I sent DH to the shops to get a few things on friday night before he came home from work and he bought 3 large rectangle punnets or strawberries....CAUSE THEY WERE ON SPECIAL!!!! Lol.....
2 tablespoons maple syrup extra strawberries, to serve
Method
Place half the ice-cream, half the strawberries and 1 tablespoon of syrup into blender or food processor. Blend or process until smooth. Transfer to a shallow airtight container. Repeat with remaining icecream, strawberries and syrup.
Cover. Freeze for 2 hours. Spoon into bowls. Top with extra strawberries. Serve.
Notes & tips
Hint You could replace strawberries with frozen raspberries. If you use frozen berries, the whip will be thick enough to process and serve immediately.

dash of nutmeg
1 pint ripe strawberries, sliced
1 C. whipping cream
1/4 C. powdered sugar, sifted
1/4 t. vanilla or almond extract
9 inch graham cracker crust
Combined softened cream cheese, sugar, vanilla and nutmeg, mixing until well blended. Mash about half of the strawberry slices, stir into cream cheese mixture. Whip cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Fold into cream cheese mixture along with remaining strawberries. Spoon into crust. Chill several hours or overnight.
