Strawberry Whipped Sensation Pie


 
 
For my table today, I'm using my favorite dishes by Mikasa, which is Berry Delight.  I've made a table runner from homespun and had enough leftover for napkins or extra placemats.  Canning jars are my choice for drink ware for this homey table.  An old cookie jar is holding some faux daisies. 


 
Here's a close-up of the pattern, which has all my favorite colors.
 
 


You can zig-zag, or just straight stitch near  the edge of the fabric and just pull the thread for a rustic finish.  Homespun is great because there  is no right or wrong side. 
 

 
I sandwiched some lace in between the runner and the ruffle for some extra charm. 
 
 
 
When I first made this recipe from Kraft.com, found here, I made it as they did, in a 9 x 5" pan with the Oreo crumbs on top.   It was so good, but somewhat messy, when inverting and cutting it.   After thinking about it, I realized it would be easier if done in pie form with an Oreo cookie crust or a chocolate one.  Here's my revised recipe, which is my new favorite dessert  for Summer.  I hope you try this refreshing pie!

 
2 cups  fresh strawberries, plus some extra for garnishing
1 can  (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup  lemon juice
1 tub  (8 oz.) COOL WHIP Whipped Topping, thawed, divided
1 Oreo or chocolate cookie crust



MASH 2 cups berries in large bowl. Add milk, juice and 2 cups COOL WHIP; mix well. Pour into prepared pie crust. 
         

FROST with additional COOL WHIP.  Cover and freeze for 6 hours. 

If desired, garnish with additional strawberries before serving.

    Your table runner is really nice and I love the surprise element of the lace. The Strawberry desert looks just perfect, I think I will definitely have to try it as it just looks too lovely!

  14. Hi Kitty,

    My mom and I have been making this recipe for years; it's one of our favorites!! In fact, my mom had a family get-together last week, and she made it then. Yum!

    Our recipe makes two regular-size pies, and we just use pastry pie crusts, but I think in previous years we've used graham cracker crusts, as well. This is a light, tasty dessert for summer, and I love the combination of creaminess and fresh strawberries. We've had so much hard rain in our area this year that our strawberries haven't been very good. :(

    Your table looks so charming. I love your berry dishes; and your table runner and napkins are so pretty. I think the added lace was the perfect touch to your runner. :) I hope you have a great day Kitty!

    Hugs,

  17. I love your dishes and homespun runner! The ruffle adds a little extra touch to it. The pie looks delicious but full of calories! But then anything good is full of calories it seems. Would love to have you visit me at my blog! Nancy

  18. There are those pretty berry plates again. I love those, and the homespun runner is the perfect accompaniment to them. The addition of the lace ruffle makes the runner so much more special. The canning jars are great for glasses on this charming table. OK, you had me at strawberries. I love anything strawberry. But then I read how easy this is to make, and I knew I'd definitely be making this pie. thank you for sharing the recipe, Kitty. laurie
