Cherry Cheese Mold
-
1 can (8 oz.) dark sweet pitted cherries
-
1 package cherry jello flavour gelatine
-
1 1/2 cups crushed ice
-
2 packages (3 oz. each) cream cheese softened and cut up.
Drain cherries, reserving syrup. Add water to syrup to make 3/4 cup. Pour into small saucepan. Bring to a boil over high heat. Pour the boiling liquid into blender. Add gelatine. Cover and blend at low speed until gelatine is completely dissolved, about 30 seconds. Add crushed ice and cream cheese. Blend at high speed for 1 minute. Pour into 4-cup mold or bowl or individual dessert dishes. Drop cherries into gelatine mixture, one at a time. Chill until firm, about 1 hour. Unmold.
