Lifesaver

I can`t remember the last time I had a lifesaver. Well, I guess you never really have just one lifesaver, you usually end up eating the whole roll. I`m guilty for going through the pack and picking out the red, orange, and yellow ones. I`m a sucker for any cherry flavoured candy, but the pineapple lifesavers were my all time fav.

For this recipe, you can substitute whatever flavour was your favourite (grape, lime, etc.). I couldn`t find a pineapple Jell-O package, so I used orange-pineapple; but again, use whatever lifesaver flavour you like!

Strawberries 'n' Cream


I started making this recipe hoping they would turn out tasting like Strawberry Shortcake, but the vanilla is so strong that all I can think of is strawberries and cream... and they are so good! I used a heavy cream in the first layer but I think melted vanilla ice cream would be so much better, and tastier (if you do use the ice cream, omit the Vanilla extract to avoid the vanilla overpowering the strawberry flavour).
