Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Black pepper goes wonderfully with strawberries. Consider cracking some fresh pepper right over the top before serving.
  • tip 2
    If you are looking for a different twist on this recipe, try using a different variety of berry (blueberries, blackberries) or peaches.
  • tip 3
    Substitute 4 packets Truvía™ Natural Sweetener for each tablespoon for Truvía™ Natural Sweetener spoonable.
