Notes

  • The original recipe for strawberry chiffon squares calls for a 11 x 7 inch baking dish.  If you do not have one, use a 13 x 9 inch baking dish or (2) pie pans for strawberry chiffon pie. 
  • 1 1/2 cups of crushed graham crackers equals one small package from a box of standard sized graham crackers. 
  • Be sure to use sweetened condensed milk not evaporated milk. It is not the same and will not work.
  • Use frozen, sliced strawberries or use whole, frozen strawberries and be sure to slice them after they thaw. Do not discard the juices!
  • Heavy whipping cream works best; just whip it up in a blender. I like to put my bowl and beater into the refrigerator for a little bit so it's cold before I make homemade whipped cream.  In a pinch, Cool Whip will work too.
