This is the best dessert ever. Very light. Wonderful after a big meal and you can make a lighter version as well. This is our favorite and I have taken it to many potlucks, baby and wedding showers and many family get togethers. You will not be disappointed.

Steps:
- CRUST: Mix and press into 9X13 pan.
- Reserve a few crumbs to garnish the top.
- FILLING: Dissolve the Jello in boiling water.
- Add the strawberries and the lemon juice.
- Let stand until fairly firm.
- Pour over crust.
- TOPPING: Mix the cream cheese, milk and icing sugar together. (I usually beat the cream cheese with the milk until smooth then beat in the icing sugar).
- Mix in with the prepared Dream Whip.
- Spread on top of strawberry layer.
- Top with reserved crumbs.
- CHILL in fridge until ready to serve.
- NOTE VARIATIONS: For a different look I have kept out about 1/2 cup plain Jello (before the strawberries were added) and mixed in with the topping for a nice pink color.
- I have also used frozen strawberries in liquid and just cut back a bit on the boiling water.
- I have used 2 packages small Jello (instead of a large). A friend used lemon Jello and pineapple.
- The variations are endless.
- I hope you enjoy this as much as we do.
- Prep time is approximate and does not include standing time.
