I needed a light dessert in a hurry, and my family loves all the ingredients in this one, so I put this together as a puuding in a bowl...no crust. I stirred together the pudding and jello in the pineapple juice and water, then added the pineapple tidbits after it cooled. Allowed it to chill for an hour or so then stirred in the Cool Whip. When I served it in a small serving bowl, I stuck a couple of vanilla wafers on the sides. Everyone loved it. Great flavor. Next time I will make it for a pot luck and take more time and do it as directed. Thanks for a great summer dessert.
