My family has made this for every Thanksgiving and Christmas! It’s a side dish in our family, not a dessert! Having been the youngest of many born 60 years ago when jello was a inexpensive side with even carrots and raisins in green jello some nights, but I degrees. My mom always used Cherries and ground nuts on top, I don’t use either. We also don’t use the milk with the cream cheese. Since times have evolved I make it all in my blender. I don’t like chucks of cream cheese or pears. Sometimes I put it in a mold and sometimes a pretty clear bowl.
