Cherry Cheese Jell-O Mold Yield: 8 servings Oven Temperature: None Ingredients: 1 6 ounce package cherry-flavored Jell-O 1 16 ounce can pitted black Bing cherries, drained with juice reserved 1 pint sour cream or 1 17 ounce container whipped cream cheese

Directions:
Place Jell-O powder in a large bowl. Pour 1 cup reserved cherry juice into bowl. If there isn't enough cherry juice, just add water to the juice to make 1 cup. Add 1 cup boiling water. Whisk thoroughly until Jell-O is dissolved. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the refrigerator until gelatin begins to set (about an hour).

Remove Jell-O from refrigerator, and add either sour cream or whipped cream cheese. Beat with a hand mixer until smooth. Stir in the can of whole cherries. Pour into a 3 quart mold. Refrigerate until firm.

When ready to serve, quickly dip mold into a bowl of warm water. Wipe mold dry. Place a serving plate on top of mold, and invert. Repeat if necessary to release Jell-O. Serve immediately.
