Thanksgiving Recipes!

I forgot to post these earlier, so here goes. I made a tossed salad and two desserts for Thanksgiving. I made a Banana Cream pie and Strawberry Whipped Sensation. Both were new things that I've never made before, but they both turned out really good.

Strawberry Whipped Sensation
Makes: 12 servings

4 cups fresh strawberries, divided
1 can (14 oz.) EAGLE BRAND® Sweetened Condensed Milk
1/4 cup lemon juice
1 tub (8 oz.) COOL WHIP Whipped Topping, thawed, divided
8 OREO 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.


Layered Banana Cream Pie
Makes: 8 servings
3 oz. cream cheese
3/4 cup powdered sugar
6 oz. cool whip
2-3 sliced bananas
6 oz. package instant banana pudding
1 1/2 cups milk
1 prepared pie shell

Directions: Mix together cream cheese, powdered sugar, and cool whip. Spread mixture over the bottom of the pie shell (layer 1). Top with sliced bananas (layer 2). Mix together pudding and milk. Spread over bananas (layer 3). Cover and refrigerate until top layer is set. So easy!

Preparation Time: 20 minutes to make, more to chill.
