It’s Valentine’s Day – so I wanted to share with you a quick little dessert that has become a tradition for the kids.
Growing up we would always have this as a big jelly salad at Christmas time with the bottom layer green Jello instead of the red. I know, jelly salads are a thing of the past, and with some of the recipes out there, for good reason 😉 but I love this one. A few tweaks & this version is quickly becoming a must have for us. Put into individual glasses, and everyone gets their own dessert to eat under candlelight.
3 Boxes of Jello 85g – Raspberry, Lemon & Strawberry
8 oz Cream Cheese softened
1 cup Boiling Water
1 cup Whipping Cream
To Make
~ Make the Raspberry Jello as per directions on the box
~ Pour into 8 individual parfait cups (about 1 cup size) & let set.
~ Once 1st layer is set, cream Lemon Jello & Cream Cheese together, then dissolve in boiling water.
~ Refrigerate until almost set.
~ Whip the whipping cream and fold into Lemon Jello mixture
~ Pour over first layer & let set.
~ Once 2nd layer is set, make the Strawberry Jello as per directions on the box
~ Pour over 2nd layer & let set.
~ Top with sweetened whipping cream.
And there you have it – an easy peasy dessert for your Valentine!

Happy Valentine’s Day y’all!
