SUPER EASY MICROWAVE STRAWBERRY JAM



Super Easy Microwave Strawberry Jam image

This quick and easy recipe makes a small batch of jam that is not too sweet with fantastically bright berry flavor. When I couldn't find the original recipe from 20+ years ago, I created this simple one with just 2 ingredients. Mixture is very hot, so use care when stirring. Refrigerate leftovers if there are any! Tastes great on toast and English muffins or spoon while warm over ice cream. Blueberries can also be used in place of strawberries.

3 pints fresh strawberries
3 cups superfine sugar
2 tablespoons orange-flavored liqueur (recommended: Grand Marnier)

EASY STRAWBERRY JAM-FILLED COOKIES



Easy Strawberry Jam-Filled Cookies image

This recipe uses cream cheese in the dough. Makes the dough smooth and rich tasting. I like these with raspberry & blackberry jam as well.

Provided by S I

Categories     Cookies

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 10

8 oz cream cheese, softened
1/2 c (1 stick) butter, softened
2/3 c granulated sugar
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 1/2 c all purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/3 c walnut pieces, finely chopped
3/4 c strawberry preserves or jam
1 tsp confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, cream the cream cheese, butter and granulated sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until well blended. Separate 1 of the eggs; set aside the egg white for later use. Add the yolk, the second whole egg and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture; mix well. In a separate bowl, combine the flour and baking powder. Gradually add the flour to the cream cheese mixture, beating until well blended after each addition. Divide the dough into four equal pieces. Wrap each in plastic wrap and chill for 1 hour.
  • 2. Roll each piece into a 12 x 1-inch log; place 2 inches apart on a large ungreased (or parchment lined) baking sheet. Use the handle of a wooden spoon or your fingers to make a depression down the length of each log, about 1/2 inch wide and 1/2 inch deep. Beat the reserved egg white with a fork; brush over the dough. Microwave the preserves or jam for a few seconds to slightly liquefy. Fill the depressions with the preserves, using about 3 tablespoons in each log. Sprinkle with the walnuts.
  • 3. Bake for 25 minutes or until the edges are lightly browned. Transfer to wire racks; cool slightly. Sprinkle with confectioners' sugar. Cut each log into 12 diagonal slices.

Provided by Secret Agent

Categories     Breakfast

Time 40m

Yield 8 half-pints, 128 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 lbs strawberries, washed and hulled and blotted dry
2 tablespoons fruit fresh
1/4 cup lemon juice, fresh (half a large lemon)
7 cups sugar
1 3/4 ounces Sure-Jell
1 teaspoon butter (optional)

Steps:

  • Put your very clean half-pint jars and bands into a huge pot of boiling water.
  • Put lids in hot but not boiling water.
  • Start your water-bath canner and let it come to a rolling boil before you start the recipe.
  • Crush the strawberries a layer at a time in a big pot (the recipe boils up) but don't pulverize them as they cook down easily. When the first layer is crushed add another layer and repeat until all of the berries are crushed.
  • Add Fresh Fruit and Sure Jell and stir well. Add lemon juice and stir well.
  • Bring to a boil over medium to medium high heat and add the sugar stirring constantly until it comes to a full boil. Boil for one minute, stirring all the while.
  • Remove from the stove and set on a few thicknesses of bath towels.
  • Drop in a teaspoon of butter to help cut the foam and skim if you need to.
  • Ladle into hot jars and process in a fiercely boiling hot water bath for ten minutes. Turn off the heat and wait about 2 minutes and remove the jars to a rack set over a bath towel or on a double thickness of bath towels.
  • Wait 24 hours, check seals, remove bands and wipe the jars and label them.
