Here’s a simple, classic Strawberry Jello Dessert that’s always a hit 🍓
Strawberry Jello Dessert (Creamy Layered)
Ingredients
- 1 (6 oz) box strawberry Jell-O
- 2 cups boiling water
- 1 (16 oz) container frozen strawberries (partially thawed)
- 1 (8 oz) block cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup sugar
- 1 cup whipped topping (Cool Whip)
Instructions
- Dissolve Jello:
Mix the strawberry Jell-O with boiling water until fully dissolved. - Add Strawberries:
Stir in frozen strawberries. Let the mixture cool slightly (it will begin to thicken). - Prepare Cream Layer:
Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Fold in whipped topping. - Layer:
Pour half of the Jello mixture into a glass dish. Gently spread the cream cheese mixture over it. - Top Layer:
Pour remaining Jello mixture on top. - Chill:
Refrigerate at least 4 hours, or until fully set.
Variations
- No-bake crust: Add a graham cracker crust on the bottom
- Lighter version: Use sugar-free Jello and light whipped topping
- Extra fruity: Add sliced fresh strawberries on top before serving
If you want, I can also give you a super quick 3-ingredient version, a pretzel strawberry jello salad, or a no-cream version.
