The first time I made this my kids were in awe. They loved the colors. I took it to a church potluck and it was gone really quick. The recipe takes time as the jello layers need to set - however the presentation is very nice. I think this is a TOH recipe.

1 (3 ounce) package cherry gelatin (or other colour)
1 (3 ounce) package lemon gelatin
1 (398 ml) can crushed pineapple

  • Once set, prepare the dream whip according to the package and cut the cream cheese into small chunks, (if you're not a fan of chunks, you could whip it all together). Mix the cream cheese into the dream whip and layer it on top of the cherry jello. Let it set in the fridge.
  • *You could save yourself time if you do step 1 and step 2 together and let both set in the fridge at the same time.*.
