How to Make Pear Lime Gelatin
- Drain 2 cups of canned pears, reserving the juice.
- Set the pears aside. Measure the reserved pear juice, adding water if necessary to reach 1 1/2 cups.
- Pour the pear juice into a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over medium heat.
- Remove from heat. Add 1 (3 ounce) package of lime-flavored gelatin and stir until completely dissolved.
- Gradually whisk in 8 ounces of softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
- Cover and refrigerate until the mixture begins to thicken slightly (about 30-45 minutes).
- While the gelatin mixture chills, mash the reserved pears with a fork until desired consistency is reached.
- Gently fold the mashed pears into the thickened gelatin mixture.
- Fold in 8 ounces of whipped topping until just combined.
- Pour the mixture into a 6-cup serving dish.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until completely set.
