How to Make Hidden Pear Salad
- In a small saucepan, bring 1 cup pear juice to a boil.
- Remove from heat and whisk in 1 (1 ounce) package of unflavored gelatin until completely dissolved.
- Let cool to room temperature until syrupy, about 30 minutes.
- While gelatin cools, puree 2 ripe but firm pears in a blender until completely smooth.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat 8 ounces cream cheese and 2 tablespoons lemon juice until light and fluffy.
- Gently fold in the pureed pears.
- Prepare 1 (8 ounce) container of whipped topping according to package directions.
- Carefully fold the whipped topping into the pear and cream cheese mixture.
- Gently fold in the cooled gelatin mixture until evenly distributed.
- Pour into a 4 1/2 cup mold or similar sized dish.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the salad to set completely.
