What a perfect summer dessert! Frozen strawberry cream, on an oreo cookie crust, with sliced strawberries on top.
- 4 cups fresh strawberries, divided
- 1 can sweetened condensed milk
- 1/4 cup lemon juice
- 3 cups fresh whipped cream (it’s easier than you think to whip cream!)
- 1 cup oreos, crushed
- 2 tsps melted butter
Line a bread pan with plastic wrap. Mash two cups of the strawberries, mix with the lemon juice and condensed milk, then gently fold in 2 cups of whipped cream. Pour into the pan, then top with the cookies and butter mixed together. Freeze at least 6 hours. To serve, invert onto a plate, slice and serve with the remaining sliced strawberries and whipped cream. Adapted from a CoolWhip recipe found in Family Circle.

This sounds delish. It’s definitely going on my list of recipes to try and soon. I have a really easy recipe for homemade strawberry ice cream. No ice cream freezer required. Just a blender. It is on my list of things to share on my blog. I’ll let you know when it shows up.

Why bother with the butter? Sounds like it would be delish without those extra fatty calories.
Ooh, sounds so nice and refreshing!
We’re fortunate to be very near some of the best strawberries in California, grown in nearby Watsonville. Fresh organic strawberries are like nothing else. Just eat ‘em plain, or make strawberry shortcakes.
