Easy Strawberry Tarts

Submitted by Alison J.

"A friend brought this to a pot luck and I had to try them myself. So easy, but they make such an impact. What a great way to enjoy fresh strawberries! You can also make a strawberry pie - just substitute a pie shell instead of the tart shells."

 

• Ready In: 1hr
• Ingredients: 8
• Serves: 24

ingredients

• 59.14 ml cornstarch
• 295.73 ml sugar
• 0.25 ml salt
• 354.88 ml water
• 85 g package strawberry Jell-O gelatin dessert
• 1182.95 ml fresh strawberries
• 24 tart shells, baked according to package directions
• whipped cream (optional)

directions

1. Boil together corn starch, salt, and water until clear, stirring constantly.
2. Add Jello; cool the mixture while you wash and slice strawberries into quarters (use halves if you're making one large pie).
3. Pile strawberries into tart shells; carefully top strawberries with jello mix. Try to cover the strawberries without having jello oozing off the tart shell. This can be a delicate procedure!
4. Cool until jello sets; serve topped with whipped cream, if desired.
