• 2. Prepare jello using the speed set method found on the jello box and pour in the frozen cherries. Place in freezer for about 10 minutes, stir and place in fridge for another 5 minutes. The spoon about 1/3 cup of jello and cherries into each glass. Return to fridge to finish setting up.
• 3. Once jello is set firm, prepare cheesecake pudding as instructed and quickly pour 1/3 cup of pudding (or more) into each glass.
