Freezer Strawberry Jam



2 cups washed, crushed strawberries (start with about 1 qt whole berries)

4 cups sugar

¾ cup water

1 box powdered fruit pectin (1¾ oz.)





Place crushed berries into a large bowl. Add the sugar to the fruit, mix well, and let stand for 10 minutes. Mix water and pectin in a small saucepan, bring the mixture to a boil, and boil for 1 minute, stirring constantly. Remove from meat and stir the pectin into the fruit. Continue stirring for 3 minutes. Ladel quickly into serilized freezable jars, leaving ½ inch of headroom. Seal immediately with sterilized tight-fitting lids. Let jars stand at room temperature until the jam is set. Freeze. Makes 5-6 8-ounce jars.

Take a Townhouse snack cracker and spread it with a little cream cheese and top with a dollop of the jam - what a great treat. I love them as well as hubby and the kids!!</font></font></font></font></font></font></font>
