Miracle Cheese Cake

By Cheryl Coleman


Looking for a dessert for your Easter dinner (or other occasion)? Here's a recipe that is easy and tastes great! I got this recipe from my supervising teacher back in 1970 when I did my student teaching in Home Economics. I've been making it and sharing the recipe ever since to great reviews!

Ingredients

  • 1 (3oz) package Lemon Jello
  • 1 C Boiling water
  • 3 T Lemon juice
  • 1 (8 oz,) package Cream Cheese, softened
  • 1 C Sugar
  • 1 t Vanilla
  • 1 (14 1/2 oz.) can Evaporated Milk
  • 1 pound Graham Crackers, crushed
  • 1/2 C Butter, melted

Directions

  • Pour Evaporated Milk into container and freeze until ice crystals form.
  • Dissolve Jello in boiling water and add lemon juice. Set aside until cool.
  • In separate bowl add melted butter to Graham Crackers and mix. Pack 2/3 of the mixture in the bottom and sides of a 9 x 13 dish. Reserve remaining crumbs for topping.
  • Cream together Cream Cheese, Sugar and Vanilla. Add cooled Jello and mix well.
  • In large bowl using electric mixer whip Evaporated Milk until thick, fold into Jello mixture.
  • Pour filling onto crust and top with reserved crumbs.
  • Chill 6 hours or overnight.
