Raspberry Cream Cheese Jello Salad Recipe
ello salad is a staple at our family gatherings and holiday dinners and this recipe is going to quickly become your favorite!
It’s easy to make – you actually BLEND all the ingredients together in a blender and then pour it into a dish to let it set up. This jello is so smooth and creamy!
Raspberry Cream Cheese Jello salad can be made-ahead of time (I would recommend making it the day before at the earliest) and served with whipped cream and fresh raspberries on top.
Ingredients needed for this Raspberry Cream Cheese Jello Salad
- 1 can of pears
- Water
- Box of raspberry jello
- 1 package of cream cheese
- 1 carton of Cool Whip
Why is this called a salad?
Many of our jello recipes are called “salads” – they may not be the typical green salad that you are used to, but they are usually a combination of ingredients tossed together – which is one of the definitions of a salad. 🙂
Many years ago, jello was mixed with vegetables like grated carrots or diced celery. Some also added nuts, fruit, cottage cheese, and pretzels. The combination of these ingredients set in the gelatin gave it a “salad-like” appearance, which is why they started calling it jello salad.
Regardless of if this recipe counts as a salad or not does not really matter – the taste is amazing and everyone will love this recipe!
