- The next recipe I'm sharing with y'all
0:02
is another 4th of July.
0:06
like four 4th of July recipes for y'all.
0:09
So you can do all of them
0:10
or just choose the one you wanna do
0:12
and add that to your 4th of July table.
0:15
I've got 1/8 ounce package of softened cream cheese.
0:18
I've got 1/4 of a cup of 4X or 10X sugar,
0:23
whichever one you use, confection sugar.
0:28
And it gives you a choice of using almond or vanilla.
0:33
I think, I just love almond extracts,
0:36
I think I'm gonna use that one.
0:40
Let's see and we just need...
0:47
Don't need a whole bunch,
0:49
but that's about a half a teaspoon.
0:52
And I also like mixing the flavors, imagine that.
0:58
I'm gonna put a little vanilla to go with it.
1:08
Oops, that's the wrong one,
1:10
that was the wrong top, sorry, Casey.
1:13
All right, so I'm just gonna,
1:17
turn that down so I won't get powdered sugar all over me.
1:22
Y'all, I don't know if y'all have been in
1:24
any of the Paula Deen Family Kitchen gift stores,
1:30
this is a new piece that we started carrying
1:37
You can use it for a marinade and put that on top,
1:42
and when you're through cooking it, you can put it on that.
1:47
But this makes the nicest travel container.
1:54
It looks so much better
1:55
than just the plain bowl one, So I love this.
1:59
So this is gonna be perfect for our strawberries.
2:03
Now our next step, and these are big strawberries,
2:07
our next step is going to require an ease.
2:16
We're gonna have to do this kind of easy
2:20
and we're going to quarter this strawberry,
2:22
but we're not going all the way down.
2:25
If you've ever done a recipe
2:26
with like by day your onions,
2:31
where you quarter them almost to the base
2:34
and then stuff it with bullion cubes and butter,
2:37
this is kind of the same idea.
2:39
So you just wanna go down, but not through
2:47
and then we're just going to kind of fan them out
2:49
a little bit without breaking them.
2:53
And you want them to be able to sit evenly,
2:55
so if you've got one that the bottom's a little funky,
3:01
you can just trim off that bottom.
3:05
So this is it, quarter, quarter.
3:15
And I'm gonna pipe our cream cheese into these strawberries
3:22
and then I'm gonna sprinkle them with some chopped pecans.
3:27
You can use the nut of your choice.
3:30
So we're just gonna try to fold back
3:32
those quarters that we made back
3:36
without breaking them in two.
3:41
So see how pretty they look?
3:48
So we are just gonna dip those into our chopped pecans
4:00
and look what a pretty little appetizer that makes.
4:08
- [Camera Person] I like it.
4:11
Why don't we have one?
4:13
So who would like a strawberry?
4:16
Come on! (Paula laughing)
4:19
That's a big one right there, I think I want a little one.
4:34
- It's good and it's refreshing and fairly healthy.
4:46
- Yeah, the red part!
4:54
I'm going to steal another nut.
4:59
I think y'all will like this
5:00
and it certainly makes a statement and it's relatively easy.
5:06
Just make sure in selecting your strawberries,
5:14
that they're nice and ripe.
