<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Well it’s getting towards the end of spring and if
you haven’t done so it’s the perfect time to go get some strawberries and go
country kitchen crazy. I don’t know wither you have ever gone and picked your
own but they just seem to taste better but don’t worry if going to the grocery
store is enough adventure for you these recipes will work just the same. Happy sweets!
One of my favorites! Homemade strawberry ice cream but its best to wait until 4<sup>th</sup>
of July for that one. Although it’s always a good time for delicious.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">To save time you can just use a box cake mix of either
white or yellow cake. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Bake cake in 2 – 9” pans then cut each layer in half
so that you have 4 equal layers of cake.<o:p></o:p></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Now you will need a large bowl of strawberries all
sliced and ½ cup of sugar sprinkled over them to create juice.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

cool whip that’s fine too.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">To assemble place one layer of cake then add
strawberries with juice. Top with a layer of whipped cream and some fresh
strawberries then add your next layer of cake and repeat until you reach the
top. (I like to leave the sides naked so you can see the delicious layers but
decorating is up to you.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

<span style="font-family: "Times New Roman","serif"; font-size: 12pt; line-height: 115%;">Just be creative my wife likes to add a base layer
of dried meringue for an airy crunch. Or she’ll use mini bunt pans so everyone
can have a little cake of their own. Or for a fun treat add ice cream and make
it an ice cream cake.<o:p></o:p></span></div>Chef Ronald Hitehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13114367870367503474noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-671620076917268963.post-79477914665705652052012-04-07T18:30:00.001-07:002012-04-07T18:30:35.070-07:00Happy EasterSo Happy Easter! everyone <br />
<br />
When you ask any one what is the main things they remember about the family Easter meal is the Ham. the questions is " What type of ham do you serve? " Country salt cured ham, Fresh honey ham, or a precut spiral ham.<br />
<br />
The other thing people always remember about Easter are the eggs. Kids and adults alike love trying to decorate the best egg. You can use hard boiled eggs that you can later peel and eat. When you get more serious you can empty out the yolk and white while keeping the shell intact and keep the shells for as long as desired. ( If your worried about any spread of germs you can boil the empty shells to sanitise them) <br />
<br />
Well we will let you know how our Easter for two goes. Please share your favorite moments with us here on Butter and Bacon!!<br />
<br />
Have a blessed Easter see ya back soon. <br />
<br />
Next week I will be posting some family recipes and dinner ideas that you can try at home.<br />

<br />
Butter & Bacon is an informative and fun blog for recipies, neat kitchen tricks, and perhaps some crazy stories (cuz my wife is a cluts). My wife and I were both raised in eastern North Carolina so certain words have very particular meaning to us like Bar B Que, Chicken pot pie, and sweet tea. so I may need to add a mini dictionary to make sure you can follow the lingo. <br />
<br />
My wife and I meet at Johnson and Wales University in N.C. I was majoring in Culinary and Beverage while she got her degree in Baking and Pastry so between the two of us we have all aspects of the meal covered so please don't be shy with questians (others are probably wondering the same thing you are)<br />
<br />
Thanks for visiting Butter & Bacon<br />
<br />
Hope to see you back here soon<br />
