Cool Whip: the key to lift and fluffy texture use the brand name and thaw overnight in the fridge for best results
Strawberries: choose ripe juicy strawberries to garnish for a fresh finish if desired
Step by Step Instructions
Prepare the Strawberry Base:
In a large mixing bowl add the strawberry gelatin powder powdered sugar vanilla extract and milk. Use a handheld or standing mixer on medium high speed for about a minute and a half. The mixture will visibly thicken and become glossy. This foundation packs all the berry punch
Chill the Mixture:
Cover the bowl or transfer to a smaller container and place in the fridge for at least one hour. The strawberry mix will set up into a thick glaze rather than firm jello. This step ensures your Cool Whip will hold peaks later
