Step 5 – Beat cream cheese with granulated sugar and lemon juice or vanilla together in another large mixing bowl, using a mixer, until creamy and fluffy.

Beat until well mixed in the cooled Jello.

For now, refrigerate the mixture.

Step 6 – Shaking can again & drain can chilled evaporate milk to another large mixing cup. Whisk until light and fluffy, about 4 minutes, on high mixer. The consistency of the crushed egg whites should be there. Stir in the cream cheese / JellO combination.

A larger plate, such as 9 “or 12”, can be used and the dessert would be smaller.

Pour into small bowls and refrigerate for an easy, creamy snack if you have too much topping for the smaller jar.
