    Strawberry Swirl

    List of Ingredients





    1 cup graham cracker crumbs
    1 tablespoon sugar
    1/4 cup margarine, melted
    2 cups sliced strawberries or 10 oz
    package frozen berries, thawed
    1 3-oz package strawberry gelatin
    1 cup boiling water
    1/2 pound marshmallows
    1/2 cup milk
    1 cup whipping cream, whipped

    Recipe




    Mix crumbs and butter (sic).
    Press firmly over bottom of a
    9x9x2-inch baking dish. Sprinkle 2
    tablespoons (sic) over fresh berries
    and let stand. Dissolve gelatin in
    boiling water. Drain berries,
    reserving juice.
    Add water to juice to make 1 cup.
    Add to gelatin, Chill until
    partially set. Combine marshmallows
    and milk, heat and stir until
    marshmallows melt. Cool thoroughly,
    then fold in whipped cream.
    Add berries to gelatin, then swirl
    in marshmallow mixture to marble.
    Pour into crust and chill until set.
    Cut into squares and serve.


    Note: I have not made this recipe.
    It is from a book I love for foods
    from the past but it is one of those
    community type cookbooks that have
    not been edited professionally. Like
    it says margarine in the list of
    ingredients but in the instructions
    they refer to butter. AND they list
    1 tablespoon sugar but in the
    instructions they refer to 2
    tablespoon sugar. I think it should
    have been 1 tablespoon sugar going in
    with the graham cracker crumbs and
    then 2 tablespoons of sugar used to
    draw the juice from the sliced fresh
    strawberries.

    from "Our Favorite Grange Recipes" 1969
