    Recipe Introduction


    Serves: 6

    List of Ingredients




    1 20-ounce can crushed pineapple *
    1/2 cup sugar or equivalent in sugar substitute
    1 large box apricot gelatin - sugar-free if you wish
    8 ounces cream cheese
    12-ounce container of Cool Whip/Cool Whip Free

    Recipe



    Procedure

    * I use pineapple packed in natural juice, draining the juice and use the drained juice as part of the water measurement for maximum flavor.

    Mix crushed pineapple, water as directed on gelatin box (or add juice as above) and sugar in a pan, and bring to a boil. Add gelatin and take off heat; stir until gelatin is dissolved. Let cool and add cream cheese. I usually use a potato masher and mash the cream cheese until most of it is dissolved. Some have told me that thy use the blender, so it is your choice. Refrigerate until mixture starts to thicken and congeal. Stir in Cool Whip until it is mixed together. Chill overnight.
