Lemon Cheesecake Mousse - Guide Recipe
I went a little crazy the other week buying Jello. It was on sale and I had a couple coupons and couldn’t pass up the opportunity. With all my bargain Jello , I needed to come up with some ways to use it. I could make regular ol’ Jello which I will probably end up doing when John goes in for his dental surgery and can’t eat solid food. But I was thinking that is a bit blah. I settled on making mousse! I added a whole package of cream cheese to make it super creamy and oh so special. Not light on calories , but it’s worth every bite!
It’s also NO-BAKE – the best kind of dessert ever. Who wants to turn the oven on in this heat? Not this girl.
Hold yourself back from eating it right out of the bowl. Trust me , you’ll want it to sit for a couple hours in the fridge so it gets that light , fluffy texture. It’s even better then!
I topped ours off with fresh blackberries , but you could leave off the berries or add a dollop of Cool Whip on top. Or live on the wild side and add berries AND Cool Whip. There ya go!
Three ingredients (Jello , cream cheese + Cool Whip) or four , if you count water and no-bake. That , my friends , is a winner , in my books!

Would you make your mousse with lemon Jello or would you try another flavour? I’m thinking strawberry would also be yummy
