"Just in time for Christmas! Layers of red cranberry, green jello, and cream cheese in the middle. Haven't made it yet, but am planning on it! Found in Healthy Cooking from Taste of Home. It says to chill until set but not firm to help the layers from sliding apart when cut."

This recipe was very easy and yummy. I had a can of jellied cranberry sauce for Thanksgiving, and wanted to jazz it up. Only change was I used everything with sugar (nothing low-fat or with fake sweeteners). Everyone raved and enjoyed it very much.
