This Recipe is from allrecipes.com. I saw it in a magazine once, made it, and it was a huge hit and super easy to make!P.S.- I made it without the cake slices and it still comes out great but I might try it with this year. Sounds yummy!Ingredients- 1 quart strawberries, divided
- 1 1/2 cups boiling water
- 1 pkg. (8 serving size) JELL-O Brand Gelatin, any red flavor
- Ice cubes
- 1 cup cold water
- 1 (12 ounce) package pound cake, cut into 10 slices
- 1 1/3 cups blueberries, divided
- 1 (8 ounce) tub COOL WHIP Whipped Topping, thawed
Directions- Slice 1 cup of the strawberries; set aside. Halve remaining strawberries; set aside.
- Stir boiling water into dry gelatin mix in large bowl 2 minutes until completely dissolved. Add enough ice to cold water to measure 2 cups. Add to gelatin; stir until ice is melted. Refrigerate 5 minutes or until slightly thickened (consistency of unbeaten egg whites). Meanwhile, line bottom of 13x9-inch dish with cake slices. Add sliced strawberries and 1 cup of the blueberries to thickened gelatin; stir gently. Spoon over cake slices.
