4th Of july Dessert

[angelofmusic21]

Hi and welcome once again to the Cauldron.

In the cauldron today I have brewing another recipe that is really good for the 4th of July. This particular brew calls for walnuts, I personally don't like them so instead I have used almonds and it turns out just as good. I might try to use cashews the next time and see how that goes.

4TH OF JULY DESSERT

2 boxes raspberry jello
2 1/2 c. hot water
1 envelope plain gelatin
1/2 c. cold water
1 c. half and half cream
1 c. sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
8 oz. cream cheese
1/2 c. walnuts
1 (15 oz.) can blueberries

Note: Allow each layer to gel about 2 hours before next one is made.

First Layer Red: Dissolve 1 box jello in 1 3/4 cups hot water. Pour into
oblong or square dish. Allow to gel (2 hours).

Middle Layer White: Dissolve plain gelatin in 1/2 cup cold water. Heat cream
and sugar without boiling. Add this to gelatin mixture. Add vanilla and
cream
cheese. Whip with mixer until smooth. Add walnuts and pour over first red
layer (set 2 hours).

Third Layer Blue: Dissolve the other box of jello in 3/4 cup hot water,
adding the juice from the can of blueberries. Add blueberries to jello
mixture and
pour over other layers. Let set. Serve plain or with whipped cream.

Ok, that's all for now. Remember if you want something posted here or have a request for a recipe let me know and I'll get it up here for you.
