LIGHT AND FLUFFY LEMON JELLO CHEESECAKE RECIPE - FOOD.COM



Light and Fluffy Lemon Jello Cheesecake Recipe - Food.com image

I got this recipe in 1980 when I worked at University of Michigan hospital. The ward secretary on our unit always brought this to our potluck lunches. Everyone loves it because of its great cheesecake flavor without the heaviness of regular cheesecake. Easy to make, easier to eat!

Total Time 2 hours 15 minutes

Prep Time 15 minutes

Cook Time 2 hours

Yield 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups graham cracker crumbs
2 tablespoons sugar
6 tablespoons butter, melted
6 ounces lemon Jell-O gelatin
2 cups boiling water
8 ounces cream cheese
12 ounces evaporated milk, chilled

Steps:

  • Mix Graham cracker crumbs, 1 tablespoon sugar, and melted butter or margarine.
  • Press Graham cracker crumb mixture into the bottom of a 9"x13" pan. (You do not need to grease the pan.).
  • Mix lemon Jello with 2 cups boiling water until Jello is dissolved.
  • Add cream cheese to Jello mixture, breaking cheese up with a potato masher or the beaters of an electric mixer.
  • In a chilled bowl (glass or metal work best) whip with electric mixer chilled evaporated milk with 1 tablespoon sugar until small peaks form. (Getting peaks to form is much easier if the bowl and milk are cold.).
  • Add Jello mixture to evaporated milk and continue to beat until well blended.
  • Pour over Graham cracker crust.
  • Chill until firm.
