Raspberry Jello Dessert/Salad...

This is one of those recipes that reminds of Christmas time with Chris' family...I just love it!!! Every now and then I crave it like crazy and so comes the time to make whether it's Christmas or not...I hope you like it. It's called a Salad but it's more like a Dessert...Yumm!!

Raspberry Jello Salad/Dessert

Make crust of:
2 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1/2 cup melted butter
6 Tbsp. powdered sugar

Press down into 9x13 pan, reserving 1/3 cup to sprinkle on top.

Cream Cheese layer:
1 8oz package cream cheese, room temperature
1 cup powdered sugar
1 pint cold whipping cream

Mix softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until there are no more lumps. Add whipping cream and beat on high until stiff peaks form. Put half of this mixture over crust. Reserve other half. Refrigerate.

Jello Layer:
2 1/2 cups boiling water
1 6 oz. package raspberry jello
2 Tbsp. lemon juice
2 packages frozen raspberries

Pour boiling water over jello in bowl, add lemon juice and stir until dissolved. Add raspberries. Put jello in fridge for about 20 minutes and then pour over cream cheese layer. Refrigerate until firm.

Pour other half of cream cheese mixture over jello and then sprinkle with reserved crumb mixture. Let the whole thing set up in fridge and ENJOY!!!!

Last night while Sophie was in the tub with her hand down in the nether-regions, she said "mom I found a hole in my cha-chee" Now if that isn't funny...
