Friday, we had the missionaries from our church over for dinner. Now, having been a missionary myself and knowing that missionaries don't need dessert every day (not that they don't like it, they just don't need it) I had no intention of making dessert. Well, I must of been dreaming about this dessert all night because I woke up craving it Friday morning. I made dessert after all.
This Raspberry Icebox Dessert recipe comes from the Taste of Homes Contest Winning Annual Recipes 2007 Cook book. It would make a great potluck dessert and doesn't require any baking. Yumm, look at all the delicious layers.
Raspberry Icebox Dessert
- 2 (3 ounce) packages raspberry gelatin
- 2 cups boiling water
- 3 cups raspberries (fresh or frozen)
- 2 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 32 squares)
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup melted butter
- 1 1/2 cups cold milk
- 1 package (3/4 ounces) INSTANT vanilla pudding mix
- 1 8 ounce package cream cheese, softened
In a large bowl , combine raspberry gelatin with boiling water. Stir until gelatin is dissolved. Add raspberries. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until syrupy. Do not let gelatin set completely!
In a small bowl combine the graham cracker, brown sugar and melted butter. Press into a greased 9x13x2 inch pan.
In a large mixing bowl beat the milk and pudding on low speed for 2 minutes. In another mixing bowl beat cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the pudding. Spread cream cheese mixture over graham cracker crust. Spoon gelatin over pudding layer. Chill until set. Refridgerate leftovers.

I'm sorry, but I've turned word verification on again. I hate trying to decipher the words just as much as anyone, but I'm getting way too much spam. I tried doing comment moderation as people suggested but the number or spam comments I had to sift through was ridiculous. I appreciate your comments and didn't want them to get lost among the spam. Hopefully, I can reduce the amount of spam and turn the word verification off soon.
