I was trying to find the recipe I found when I was in high school. It called for 1 box of strawberry Jello, 1 can jelled cranberry sauce. Make 1st part of jello directions until you have jello dissolved. Don't add the rest of the water. While warm, add cranberry sauce and use fork to combine. Set in fridge. When set, add top layer: 1 pkg. cream cheese & 1 tub whipped topping. Beat til smooth. Spread over jello layer. This has been a holiday favorite of my family's ever since I made it that first year. They demand it! I was hoping to find it here so that I could share it with my Pinterest friends. I might try adding the pineapple this year. That sounds good. It is also good with chopped nuts on top
