CREAMY LAYERED CRANBERRY DESSERT (NO-BAKE)

Steps:

• Butter a 13 x 9-inch glass baking pan.
• For the crust; in a bowl combine the graham cracker crumbs with the sugar and 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons melted butter; mix to combine then press lightly into the baking pan; set aside.
• In a heat-proof bowl combine 1-1/2 cups boiling water with the cranberry and raspberry Jell-o powder and 1/3 cup sugar; mix with a spoon until no granules remain.
• Stir in the cranberry sauce until totally combined (I used my hands for this, it is much easier than using a spoon!).
• Stir in 1 cup cold water until completely combined.
• Chill the mixture for about 1-1/2 to 2 hours (stirring with a spoon a few time during chilling) or until a thick jelly-like consistency, not completely set but still able to spread on top of the cream cheese mixture (chilling time will depend on how cold your fridge is).
• While the gelatin mixture is chilling; in a bowl beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth.
• Add in the two 8-ounce containers of thawed Cool Whip and beat at low speed until combined.
• Stir in two 8-ounce container/tub thawed Cool Whip until combined; spread over the crust in the baking dish; chill until ready to top with the gelatin mixture.
• Spoon the semi-firm cranberry gelatin/orange mixture over the cream cheese layer.
• Chill for minimum of 4 hours (or longer) or until firm.
• Top with whipped cream or Cool Whip topping.
