Ingredients
- 6 oz lime gelatin
- 6 oz lemon gelatin
- 4 cups boiling water
- 2 cups cold water
- 20 oz crushed pineapple (canned, undrained)
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups whipped topping
- 0.5 cups chopped pecans (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the lime and lemon gelatin packages in 4 cups of boiling water. Stir for about 2 minutes until completely dissolved.
Step 2
Stir in 2 cups of cold water. Set the mixture aside to cool slightly.
Step 3
Add the undrained crushed pineapple to the gelatin mixture and stir well to combine.
Step 4
Pour the mixture into a 9x13 inch glass dish or similar-sized serving dish. Cover and refrigerate for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the mixture begins to set but is not fully firm.
Step 5
While the gelatin is chilling, in a separate mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Fold in the whipped topping until fully incorporated.
Step 6
Remove the gelatin mixture from the refrigerator and gently fold in the mini marshmallows, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
Step 7
Spread the cream cheese and whipped topping mixture evenly over the top of the chilled gelatin. If desired, sprinkle the chopped pecans over the top for added texture and flavor.
Step 8
Cover the dish and refrigerate for another 2-3 hours, or until fully set.
