Strawberry Bavarian Cream

Beyond its wonderful taste, this dessert has the appeal that it has to be made hours (even a day) ahead of time. And it is not dependent upon the strawberries’ being in season.

1 10-oz. package frozen strawberries 2 envelopes unflavored gelatin
1/4 c. cold milk 1/4 c. sugar
2 eggs 1 heaping cup crushed ice
1 c. heavy cream  
  1. Defrost the berries. In a small pan, heat 1/2 cup of the juice to simmering.

  2. Put the gelatin, juice, and milk in a blender, and blend for 40 seconds.

  3. Add the sugar and eggs, and blend for 5 seconds.

  4. Add the berries, and blend for 5 seconds.

  5. Add the ice and cream, and blend for 20 seconds.

  6. Pour the mixture into a lightly oiled mold. Cover and chill for at least 4 hours.

6 servings
