Instructions

First layer:

  1. Spray a 9x13 baking dish with cooking spray and set aside. I like to use a clear baking dish so you can see all the layers through the pan.
  2. Combine lime Jell-O and 2 cups hot water and mix until dissolved. Pour mixture into the prepared pan and refrigerate until completely firm (about an hour).

Second layer:

  1. While the first layer is cooling, prepare the second layer. Dissolve lemon Jell-O in 1 1/2 cups hot water, mix until dissolved and set aside.
  2. Next, in a medium size bowl, use an electric mixer and mix softened cream cheese until smooth. Set aside.
  3. Finally, heat marshmallows and pineapple juice in sauce pan over medium-low heat stirring constantly until melted. Takes about 5 minutes.
  4. Add marshmallow mixture and lemon Jell-O mixture to cream cheese and whisk together until smooth. Cool to room temperature and then pour over the first layer. This layer cannot be warm at all or you risk melting the first layer when you pour it on.
  5. Smooth out the second layer if needed and then refrigerate for at least another hour or until completely firm and set.

Third Layer:

  1. While second layer is cooling, combine raspberry and cherry Jell-O with hot water and stir until dissolved. Cool to room temperature then slowly and carefully pour over the second layer.Refrigerate another hour until completely firm and set before serving.

Serving and toppings:

  1. Cut into 2-3" squares and top with whipped cream and Christmas sprinkles before serving.
