Directions
Prepare black cherry flavored gelatin using 2 cups of boiling water and 1 cup of cold.
Add blueberry pie filling and stir until filling is mixed in thoroughly.
Pour into the baking dish and place in the refrigerator. Allow to chill until firm.
Prepare
lemon flavored gelatin using 1 cup of boiling water.
Beat cream cheese slightly and then add the lemon gelatin mixture. Beat gelatin and cream
cheese until smooth. Set aside and allow to cool to room temperature.
Once the cream cheese mixture has cooled, fold in the whipped topping until mixed
thoroughly.
Pour this mixture over the firmly set bottom layer. Return to the refrigerator.
The cream cheese layer should be chilled long enough to become firm.
Prepare the
strawberry flavored gelatin using 2 cups of boiling water and 1 cup of cold. Add the frozen
strawberries and stir to mix thoroughly.
Cool this mixture until room temperature and then pour over the middle cream cheese
layer.
Return the 3 layers to the refrigerator and chill until top layer is firm.
Cut
into squares to serve. Top with a little whipped topping and a couple of blueberries, if desired.
