Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 oz Jello gelatin (blackberry or grape flavor)
- 2 cups Boiling water
- 1 cup Cold water
- 20 oz Crushed pineapple (canned, with juice)
- 21 oz Blueberry pie filling
- 8 oz Cream cheese
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 8 oz Whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
- 1 cup Chopped pecans (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the Jello gelatin in the boiling water. Stir until completely dissolved, about 2 minutes.
Add the cold water to the dissolved gelatin and mix well.
Stir in the crushed pineapple with its juice and the blueberry pie filling. Mix until fully combined.
Pour the mixture into a 9x13-inch casserole dish or serving dish. Cover and refrigerate for 2-3 hours, or until the Jello is set.
In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese and sour cream together until smooth and creamy.
Gently fold in the whipped topping until the mixture is well combined. Be careful not to overmix as it could deflate the whipped topping.
Once the Jello layer is fully set, spread the cream cheese mixture evenly on top.
Sprinkle the chopped pecans over the cream cheese layer, if desired.
Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld together.
