Ingredients

Original recipe (1X) yields 10 servings

  • 1 (3 ounce) package strawberry-flavored gelatin (such as Jell-O®)

  • 1 cup boiling water

  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened

  • 1 cup white sugar

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1 (5 ounce) can cold evaporated milk

  • 1 (9 inch) prepared graham cracker crust

Directions

  1. Dissolve strawberry gelatin in boiling water in a bowl; cool in refrigerator until thick, but not set, about 20 minutes.

  2. Beat cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract together in a bowl until smooth.

  3. Beat evaporated milk in a separate bowl with an electric mixer until whipped and thick. Gradually pour strawberry gelatin mixture into evaporated milk, beating constantly. Fold cream cheese mixture into gelatin-milk mixture to form cheesecake filling.

  4. Set graham cracker crust on a baking sheet or plate to maintain stability. Pour cheesecake filling into crust. Refrigerate until cake is set, at least 3 1/2 hours.

Cook’s Note

The original recipe said to stir the evaporated milk until it formed thick peaks. Mine never formed any peaks, so I finally stopped mixing and continued with the recipe. It worked just fine.
