Cream Cheese/Jello Dessert – Recipe
Jello desserts are great any time, but I love them that much more during the summer months.
Then again, whipping up a jello dessert mixed with cream cheese and fruit, how can you beat that?
The recipe I am about to share with you is also very quick and simple to prepare, and it makes a very refreshing dessert for your family barbecue, or a dish to pass at a neighborhood get-together. I made this jello mold on numerous occasions, and I never had to worry about storing any leftovers…..it’s yummy!
This recipe yields about 64 oz, which is about 8 cups (16 – 1/2 cup servings).
