Strawberry Whirl image

This is the best dessert ever. Very light. Wonderful after a big meal and you can make a lighter version as well. This is our favorite and I have taken it to many potlucks, baby and wedding showers and many family get togethers. You will not be disappointed.

Time 30m

Yield 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup sugar
1/2 cup melted butter or 1/2 cup margarine
2 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1 (170 g) package strawberry Jell-O gelatin dessert
2 cups boiling water
1 (10 ounce) package frozen sliced strawberries
1 teaspoon lemon juice
2 (2 5/8 ounce) packages Dream Whip (or nutri whip, whipped)
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
1/4 cup milk
1/2 cup icing sugar

Steps:

  • CRUST: Mix and press into 9X13 pan.
  • Reserve a few crumbs to garnish the top.
  • FILLING: Dissolve the Jello in boiling water.
  • Add the strawberries and the lemon juice.
  • Let stand until fairly firm.
  • Pour over crust.
  • TOPPING: Mix the cream cheese, milk and icing sugar together. (I usually beat the cream cheese with the milk until smooth then beat in the icing sugar).
  • Mix in with the prepared Dream Whip.
  • Spread on top of strawberry layer.
  • Top with reserved crumbs.
  • CHILL in fridge until ready to serve.
  • NOTE VARIATIONS: For a different look I have kept out about 1/2 cup plain Jello (before the strawberries were added) and mixed in with the topping for a nice pink color.
  • I have also used frozen strawberries in liquid and just cut back a bit on the boiling water.
  • I have used 2 packages small Jello (instead of a large). A friend used lemon Jello and pineapple.
  • The variations are endless.
  • I hope you enjoy this as much as we do.
  • Prep time is approximate and does not include standing time.

Not a fan. The strawberry whirl was too dry and the cream cheese filling was too sweet.

This recipe was a bit too complicated for me. I think I'll stick to simpler desserts in the future.

I had a hard time finding fresh strawberries, so I used frozen ones instead. The strawberry whirl still turned out great, but the strawberries were a bit mushy.

This strawberry whirl was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still a nice dessert. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

I love how versatile this recipe is. I've tried it with different berries, and it always turns out great. I also like to add a bit of chocolate chips for an extra special treat.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's definitely worth the effort. The strawberry whirl was absolutely stunning, and it tasted even better than it looked.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of strawberries, but I'm so glad I did! The strawberry whirl was surprisingly delicious, and the cream cheese filling was the perfect complement.

This recipe is a keeper! The strawberry whirl was a hit at my last party, and everyone asked for the recipe. I'll definitely be making it again soon.

This strawberry whirl recipe was an absolute delight! The combination of the sweet strawberries and the creamy, fluffy batter created a truly magical dessert. My family and friends couldn't get enough of it.
