Michael smokehouse just cooking us up
0:08
some wonderful light delights to eat
0:11
when he gets home this next recipe that
0:14
I'm gonna share with y'all was shared
0:16
with me by one of my old childhood
0:18
friends her name is Carolyn Crum Cundiff
0:22
and the recipe is a strawberry gelatin
0:26
cheesecake now I'm gonna start by using
0:30
two small packages of sugar-free
0:35
strawberry gelatin all right so I'm
0:43
gonna take one cup of balling hot water
0:46
and I'm gonna pour this over our gelatin
0:49
and dissolve that now I'm just
0:53
dissolving that gelatin in that ball in
0:57
water and now I'm gonna add one cup of
1:00
cold water all right now I'm gonna put
1:13
making sure I get all of that gelatin
1:16
out okay back to my gelatin I'm gonna
1:21
add 1 12 ounce carton of light cottage
1:27
whoa okay so you can see where I'm going
1:35
with this can't you I'm just gonna blend
1:41
that until it's smooth
1:47
that looks so good I could just like
1:50
stick a straw down in there and start
1:55
all right now I'm using two pre-made
2:00
graham cracker crust so I'm gonna divide
2:03
our gelatin between our two pie shells
2:08
you see how thin that is but it won't be
2:12
thin for long after we put these in the
2:15
refrigerator and let them set in fact
2:19
I've got some that's already ready in
2:21
the refrigerator just gonna sit these
2:25
right here all right I'll put those in
2:27
the refrigerator in a minute but in the
2:30
meantime I want to pull out some that
2:33
look how good those look I'm gonna top
2:39
these pies with fresh strawberries you
2:44
know it really doesn't matter how you
2:47
play some you just want to put them in
2:48

3:22

4:01
it over our strawberries and it's gonna
4:04
congeal over those and it's they're
