  1. I found this identical recipe in my Kraft What's Cooking Magazine and was going to post it. I'll review your recipe instead! I made it with Oreo Baking Crumbs (I was out of graham cracker crumbs) and everyone loved it that way. I omitted the lemon extract. I imagine this simple dessert could be made using any of your favourite fresh or canned fruit and corresponding Jello powder.
     
  2. This was really good. Tried it with raspberries, but would probably taste just as good using strawberries. Thanks for posting. Quick and easy.
