Strawberry Creams

[jkath]

Here's what we had for dessert tonight -
it's a good thing I'm quick, or one of the boys would've bitten off my fingers!

Strawberry Creams

18 strawberries (the larger the better, but not the giant ones)
1 c. cold milk
1 small box instant vanilla pudding
2 c. cool whip
1/4 tsp. almond extract

Remove stems from strawberries, and cut a deep X in the top of each berry. Spread berries apart. In a bowl, whisk milk & pudding mix for 2 min. Fold in cool whip & extract. Spoon a dollop into each berry. Chill till ready to serve.

(*these are kind of messy, but well worth it)

that's why I made 'em - I got the big box of them for $1.99 instead of the usual $4.99 yesterday. I'm thinking about getting some more, freezing them, and making smoothies later on this weekend.

I think they'd be really pretty piped on with a star fitting (I just dolloped with a teaspoon) and then striped diagonally with dark chocolate going one way and white chocolate going the other.
