Easy Strawberry Frosting Tip;

Place a metal mixing bowl and beaters in the freezer for about 15 minutes.

This step isn’t necessary.

In fact, you can skip it.

But…

By placing the bowl and beaters in the freezer, it produces a frosting with stiffer peaks.

The downside is that your milk will take a little longer to dissolve the jello.

If you aren’t opposed to an extra dish to wash, try transferring the dissolved jello mixture to your chilled bowl.

Ready. Set. Decorate!
