This isn't exactly a recipe you are likely to find in a book - just something I threw together to satisfy my craving for something sweet and cold. It's rather like a Watergate salad, but I like mine better,
Make up a small box of jello and put in fridge and allow to set thoroughly. When set - turn out into a larger bowl and whisk it until completely broken up into a very small chunky mixture - kinda like that of cottage cheese. Take a heaping ice cream scoop of whipped cream cheese and soften it to the consistency of pudding - I just nuke it for a few seconds at a time till it's as soft as it needs to be. Pour into mashed up jello and mix thoroughly. If desired, toss in some drained crushed pineapple or pineapple chunks. Pour back into a smaller bowl that it will all fit into, and refrigerate till set again. I used lime jello, but any flavor that suits you is fine. Strawberry jello is yummy too, and any fruit you like will do too.
Yummy and simple - my kind of dessert.![]()
