Cherry gelatin salad with marshmallows and creamy cream cheese topping.
Ingredients:
  • 1 (6 ounce) package cherry-flavored gelatin (such as JELL-O®)
  • 2 cups hot water
  • 1 (8 ounce) can crushed pineapple, juice drained and reserved
  • 3 bananas, sliced
  • 1.5 cups cold water
  • 1 cup miniature marshmallows, or as needed
  • 0.75 cup white sugar
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
  • 1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed
Instructions:
  • Thoroughly dissolve gelatin in 2 cups of hot water, then pour into preferred mold. Stir in crushed pineapple, bananas, and 1 1/2 cups of cold water; sprinkle with miniature marshmallows. Refrigerate until set.
  • In a saucepan over low heat, gently whisk together the reserved pineapple juice, sugar, flour, and egg until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes. Add cream cheese, transfer to a bowl, cool to room temperature, then fold in the whipped topping. Spread over the gelatin and chill well before serving. Enjoy the delicious dessert!
