strawberry fluff finished recipe

Easy and delicious whipped strawberry fluff that is a sugar free, low calorie dessert. This is great to enjoy when you are craving a sweet treat!

PREP TIME5 minutes
REFRIGERATION4 hours
TOTAL TIME4 hours 5 minutes
 
 
Ingredients
  • 8 oz sugar free cool whip (1 normal sized container)
  • 0.3 oz sugar free strawberry jello mix (1 package)
  • 3/4 cup boiling water
  • 1 cup ice water
 
Instructions
  1. Bring 3/4 cup of water to a boil. You can easily do this by microwaving the water for about 3 minutes, or until you see bubbles.
  2. Whisk in jello mix into the boiling water until powder is completely dissolved. Whisk for about 2 minutes.
  3. Add about 1 cup of ice to a measuring cup and then fill with water until it measure 1 cup. Add ice water to jello mixture and stir until ice is completely melted and mixture begins to thicken.
  4. Whisk cool whip into mixture until smooth and well combined

  6. Refrigerate for about 4 hours until fluff is completely set.
Notes

 

Be sure to use regular jello mix, not the instant variety.

You can add 2 tablespoons of fat free reddi whip for an extra 5 calories!
