Categories     Dessert

Time 15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 Kool-aid packet (any berry flavor: strawberry, raspberry, cherry)
1 cup granulated sugar
¼ cup corn starch
2 cups cold water
2-4 cups sliced strawberries or fresh raspberries (optional)

Steps:

  • Combine Kool-aid packet, granulated sugar, and cornstarch in a 1 quart sauce pan. Mix well.
  • Add two cups cold water and bring to a boil over medium high heat. Stir constantly.
  • As mixture is getting close to coming to a boil it will begin to slightly thicken.
  • Once mixture is boiling, turn the heat down to medium or medium low and let it continue to boil (stirring constantly) for 1 minute.
  • Remove from heat and allow to cool completely before adding fruit. If you do not plan to add fruit for a cake topping and want to eat it like pudding, pour danish dessert into prepared dishes and let cool.
  • I prefer to let mine cool in the fridge before adding the fruit.
  • Enjoy!
