Strawberry Whipped Sensation



Prep Time: 20 minutes
Total Time: 6 hours, 20 minutes
Serves: 12


4 cups fresh strawberries, divided
1 can (14 oz.) sweetened condensed milk
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tub (8 oz) cool whip whipped topping, thawed, divied
8 OREO chocolate sandwich cookies, finely chopped*
1 Tbsp. butter, melted

LINE 9x5 inch loaf pan with foil, with ends of foil extending over sides of pan. Mash 2 cups of the strawberries in large bowl. Add condensed milk, juice, and 2 cups of the whipped topping; mix well. Pour into prepared pan.

MIX chopped cookies and butter. Spoon over whipped topping mixture. Cover with ends of foil and gently press cookie mixture into whipped topping mixture. Freeze 6 hours or until firm.

INVERT dessert onto serving plate when ready to serve; remove pan and foil. Spread remaining whipped topping onto top and sides of dessert. Slice remaining 2 cups strawberries; arrange over dessert. Store leftovers in freezer.

I made this treat a few weeks ago, and it turned out to be pretty tasty. Not as chocolatey as Jack and I usually like, but still good and impressive looking. I doubled the amount of oreos, and I think that makes the strawberry-chocolate proportion better. Here are some pics of the process:

What a yummy combination of foods!

Not quite finished yet...



And voila! I think I'd make this again if I were having people over or bringing a dessert to a get-together. It wasn't very hard, but not my favorite dessert ever.
