Very good! My Mother-in-law makes a similar dessert called "Raspberry Salad" -
Great! My aunt makes a similar recipe. I have it posted on here called Raspberry Dessert. -
Great recipe! And it was so easy to make it sugar free....They ate up the whole thing which usually does not happen as I always make so much....so I knew it was a hit when they kept going back for seconds... -
This is the best dessert!! I used the new raspberry/blackberry fusion jello and frozen raspberries. I have made it 3 times now and have been lucky to have 1 piece out of each batch.....it's gone before I get to it!!

I made this for a Father's Day potluck and it was a BIG hit! I used low-fat cream cheese, lite cool whip, and sugar-free non-fat raspberry jello and it was very tasty! For the frozen strawberries, I had two bags (14. oz) of sweetened raspberries and they worked just fine. This recipe was requested and I'm making another batch for my family tonight. Very Good :)

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I'm a stay at home mom with 3 adorable children-an 8 year old daredevil son, a 5 1/2 year old princess and a wild little 2 year old girl! I love to cook, and like having my little helpers in the kitchen!
I usually love recipes that are completely from scratch (I still love them actually) but right now my focus is on having any kind of food ready by mealtime! It's a little crazy here lately. Every summer we have a huge organic garden, apple orchard and raspberry and blueberry patches, along with a woods full of wild foods waiting for me to learn what they are so I can collect them. I'm learning about wild mushrooms first, so if anyone has any tips, let me know. We also eat wild venison which my husband and I hunt ourselves. It's our favorite meat, since it's lean, organic and cheap! Some of my hobbies are: hiking, biking, rock climbing, gardening, playing in the water with my kids, or just swinging in the hammock with a good book. I go stir crazy if I spend too much time inside.
