    Recipe Introduction



    - Recipe from "Inwood Farms Revisted," by Mary James and Jane Arnett.

    List of Ingredients




    1 (3-ounce) package lemon Jell-O
    1 cup boiling water
    1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, room temperature (not reduced-fat)
    1 cup sugar
    5 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
    1 (12-ounce) can Carnation evaporated milk, chilled overnight
    2 cups graham cracker crumbs, divided

    Recipe





    Sprinkle 2/3 of the graham cracker crumbs in the bottom of a 9-inch by 13-inch or 8-inch by 11-inch dish.

    Dissolve Jell-O in boiling water. Cool until slightly thickened to the consistency of egg whites.

    Beat cream cheese, sugar and lemon juice with an electric mixer until smooth.

    Add thickened Jell-O and beat well.

    In a separate bowl, beat the evaporated milk until mixture will hold firm peaks. Add to the cream cheese and Jell-O mixture and fold in until completely incorporated.

    Pour over the crumb layer. Top with the remaining 1/3 of the crushed cracker crumbs. Chill well.
