Instructions
2 20-ounce packages frozen strawberries
4 eggs
1 1/4 cups oil
1 teaspoon red food coloring
3 cups flour
2 cups sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon cinnamon
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
Thaw strawberries, reserving 1/2 cup juice. Beat eggs and oil. Add to strawberries with red food coloring. Combine dry ingredients, add to strawberries and mix well. Pour into 2 lightly greased loaf pans. Bake at 350 degrees for 1 hour – or pour batter into 6 small pans and test after 30 minutes. While bread is baking, prepare spread with the reserved strawberry juice and cream cheese. Mix to spreading consistency.
