Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 2 cups whipped topping like Cool Whip
  • 2 cups mixed berries strawberries, blueberries, raspberries
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 3 ounces strawberry Jell-O or any berry-flavored Jell-O
  • 1 cup cold water

Method
 

  1. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish to form the crust.
  2. In another bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth. Gently fold in 1 cup of whipped topping until well combined. Spread this cream cheese mixture evenly over the graham cracker crust.
  3. In a separate bowl, dissolve the Jell-O powder in 1 cup of boiling water, stirring until fully dissolved. Add 1 cup of cold water and mix well. Allow the mixture to cool slightly.
  4. Layer the mixed berries evenly over the cream cheese layer. Pour the cooled Jell-O mixture over the berries, ensuring they are well covered.
  5. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until the Jell-O is fully set.
  6. Before serving, spread the remaining 1 cup of whipped topping over the Jell-O layer for a finishing touch. Cut into squares and serve chilled.
