Dinner guests are never too full for this light luscious dessert, says Cyndi Brinkhaus of South Coast Metro, California. You can make it ahead to cut down on last-minute fuss. Plus, the graham cracker crust and pretty layers always draw raves. Ingredients:
1-1/3 cups graham cracker crumbs (about 22 squares) |
1/4 cup sugar |
1/3 cup butter, melted |
topping: |
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
1/4 cup sugar |
1/4 cup milk |
1 carton (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed |
1 can (15-1/4 ounces) sliced peaches, drained |
1 package (3 ounces) peach or orange gelatin |
3/4 cup boiling water |
1-1/4 cups cold water |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the crumbs, sugar and butter. Press into a 13-in. x 9-in. dish. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth; gradually add the milk. Fold in the whipped topping. Spread over crust.
2. Cut peach slices in half lengthwise; arrange over top. In a small bowl, dissolve the gelatin in boiling water; stir in the cold water. Refrigerate for 1-1/2 hours or until slightly thickened.
3. Gently spoon gelatin over peaches; chill until set. Cut into squares. Yield: 12-15 servings.
