Dr. Sweetpea's Favorite Jello Salad

I asked Dr. Sweetpea what his favorite dessert was while growing up. He said that his grandmother made a layered jello salad every Christmas and he has been craving it for a long time. I had no idea what he was talking about, so Dr. Sweetpea emailed his family members and got the recipe for me. I'm SO glad he told me about this holiday Jello salad because it's SOOOO delicious!


Dr. Sweetpea's Jello Salad

1 (6 oz) package lime jello
1 (6 oz) package raspberry jello
1 (3 oz) package lemon jello
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup mini marshmallows
1/2 cup mayonnaise 
1/2 (8 oz) package of cream cheese
1 (8 oz) can crushed pineapple

Prepare the lime jello layer by following the directions on the box. Pour into a 9x13 pan and chill in the refrigerator until it's semi set. Mix the lemon jello powder with 1 cup of boiling water. Mix until fully incorporated. Add in the mini marshmallows and continue to mix until the marshmallows melt. Add the mayo, cream cheese, and crushed pineapple. Mix until everything is very incorporated well. Whip the heavy cream until it's fluffy. Fold whipped cream into the lemon jello mixture. Pour into the 9x13 inch pan on top of the lime jello. Let chill in the refrigerator until it's semi set. Prepare the raspberry jello layer by following the directions on the box. Pour this mixture on top of the creamy lemon jello layer and chill in the refrigerator until set.
