1/4 cup sugar
1 cup evaporated milk
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin
1/4 cup cold water
Directions:

Add 1/2 drained pineapple and 1/2 cranberry sauce. Mix well and pour into a 9 x 13 dish. Chill until firm.
2. Beat cream cheese with sugar until smooth. Gradually beat in evaporated milk and vanilla. Soften unflavored gelatin in the cold water and heat to dissolve. Blend gelatin into cheese mixture, pour over firm Jello layer. Chill until firm.
