- 1 cup cold water
- 1 15-ounce can crushed pineapple (with juice)

Directions
Step 1
Dissolve the lime gelatin in the boiling water, stirring for about 2 minutes until fully dissolved.
Step 2
Add the cold water and stir to combine.
Step 3
Drain the juice from the can of crushed pineapple into the gelatin mixture and mix well. Reserve the pineapple for later use.
Step 4
Allow the gelatin to cool slightly for about 10 minutes at room temperature.
Step 5
In a separate mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with a hand mixer until smooth and creamy.
Step 6
Add the sour cream to the cream cheese and continue to beat until fully combined and smooth.
Step 7
Gradually add the slightly cooled gelatin mixture to the cream cheese mixture, beating continuously to avoid lumps.
Step 8
Fold in the reserved crushed pineapple and chopped pecans (if using) with a spatula.
Step 9
Pour the mixture into a greased or non-stick Jell-O mold or an 8x8-inch glass dish.
Step 10
Cover and refrigerate for at least 4-6 hours, or until fully set and firm.
Step 11
Before serving, remove the mold by dipping the bottom of the mold briefly into warm water to loosen it, then invert it onto a serving plate.
Step 12
Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!
