I've been making this for years. I do not dissolve the jello at all. I use two packs of jello, one can crushed pineapple.. juice drained, 1 to two packs of cream cheese mixed the jello with the cream cheese with a mixer, add in pineapple and some cool whip. some people add coconut and or marshmallows, I usually don't it gets firm as you mix it. adding water is something I do not do I think it delutes it. Just how I do it

What I ended up with was really good! That being said, there were modifications made. First of all, I've never seen a 10-oz. can of pineapple, nor a 5-oz. box of Jell-O! So I decided to use a standard 20-oz can of pineapple and a large box (6 ozs) of Jell-O. I pretty much made it according to Sandy M.'s comment.. just mixed in the dry Jell-O when the pineapple was added. Worked out well. I chilled it in a mold but being a creamy mixture I was concerned that it may not be firm enough to mold but it did though not firm. I will experiment with different flavors and add-ins. I will try to upload my photo of it.
