How to Make Blueberry Gelatin Salad

  1. Bloom 1 (3 ounce) package raspberry gelatin in 1 cup boiling water until completely dissolved.
  2. Stir in 1 cup cold water. Gently fold in 1 cup fresh or frozen blueberries and ½ cup fresh or frozen raspberries.
  3. Pour into a 9x13 inch dish. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until set.
  4. Meanwhile, prepare the cream cheese mixture: In a medium bowl, beat together 8 ounces of softened cream cheese, 1/4 cup powdered sugar, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  5. Once the gelatin is set, spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the top.
  6. Refrigerate for an additional 30 minutes to allow the cream cheese layer to chill and set.
  7. Serve chilled. Garnish with extra fresh berries if desired.
