DIABETIC-FRIENDLY EASY STRAWBERRY CREAM SQUARES image

The original recipe is an recipe from 'Pillsbury'...I have made it a "Diabetic-Friendly" recipe by making a few changes to the ingredients...however, I don't have the exact calorie or carb. counts. I think it is just as tasty as the original recipe. But there are less calories/serving and less carbs.

STRAWBERRY CREAM SQUARES



Strawberry Cream Squares image

A cool simple jello dessert. My Aunt Barb passed this recipe on to me when I was little. It contains my favorite combination: strawberries and sour cream. Cooking time is chill time.

Provided by MI Mitten

Categories     Gelatin

Time 2h10m

Yield 1 9x13 pan, 12-16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 (3 ounce) packages strawberry Jell-O gelatin dessert (I use wild strawberry)
2 cups boiling water
2 (10 ounce) packages frozen strawberries (best if thawed slightly)
1 (13 1/2 ounce) can crushed pineapple
2 large bananas, sliced
1 cup sour cream

Steps:

  • In large bowl dissolve jello in boiling water.
  • Add frozen berries and stir until thawed.
  • Stir in remaining fruit.
  • Pour 1/2 of the mixture in 9x13 pan and chill.
  • When firm, spread sour cream on first layer and then pour remaining jello-fruit mix on top and chill until firm.
  • Note: To save time you could just put the sour cream on top.

Tips:

  • Use ripe strawberries: Fresher strawberries will have a sweeter flavor and a better texture in the squares.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the squares tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Don't overbake the squares: The squares are done baking when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will make the squares dry.
  • Let the squares cool completely before frosting them: This will help the frosting to set properly.
  • Use a light hand when frosting the squares: You don't want to weigh them down with too much frosting.
  • Serve the squares chilled: This will help the frosting to firm up and the flavors to meld.

Conclusion:

These diabetic-friendly strawberry cream squares are a delicious and easy dessert that can be enjoyed by people with diabetes and non-diabetics alike. They are made with fresh strawberries, a creamy filling, and a graham cracker crust. The squares are also low in sugar and carbohydrates, making them a great choice for people who are watching their weight or blood sugar levels.
