Ingredients

  • 1 package (.3 ounce) sugar-free raspberry gelatin
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1 can (14 ounces) jellied cranberry sauce
  • CREAM LAYER:
  • 1 envelope unflavored gelatin
  • 1/2 cup cold water

Hi Sharen, this is your sister! I just ran across this recipe but I haven't tried it yet. It doesn't sound too difficult, just time consuming. Any recipe that is time consuming usually turns out one of the best. Knowing what a good cook that you are, I will try it out!

The directions are not complete enough. I heated the cranberry sauce in order to get it dissolved. The sour cream needs to be a at room temperature or when you add the room temperature gelatin it will set into lumps in the sour cream. I had to heat it slightly to get it smooth again. I have made it twice and it wa a hit but takes a long time to make certainly not quick
