Woolworth's Light and Fluffy Cheesecake
List of Ingredients
Woolworth's Ice Box Cheese Torte
Yield: 12-16 servings
1 (3-oz.) pkg. lemon-flavored gelatin
1 cup boiling water
1 (8-oz.) pkg. cream cheese
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tall can (13-oz.) Milnot, whipped
3 cups Graham cracker crumbs (or less if desired)
1/2 cup butter or margerine, melted
Dissolve gelatin in boiling water. Chill until slightly thickened (I chill
this until it is the consistency of an uncooked egg white).
Cream together the cream cheese, sugar and vanilla. Add the gelatin
and blend well. Fold in stiffly whipped Milnot(this can be done with and
electric mixer).
Mix Graham cracker crumbs and melted butter together; pack 2/3 of
the mixture on bottom and sides of a 9x13-inch pan (or larger). Add
filling and sprinkle with remaining crumbs. Chill several hours or
overnight.
Cut into squares and serve plain (my favorite way) or garnished with
fruit.
I have never tried using any other type of canned evaporated milk as
Milnot is what the recipe calls for. It is a different type of canned milk.
If you can not find Minot in your area, they have a website where you
can purchase it www.milnot.com. I hope you enjoy this recipe as
much as I have. I also have tried using a different flavored jello like
strawberry and cherry - I didn't like it as much as with the original
lemon flavor. Enjoy!Recipe
