LIGHT AND FLUFFY LEMON JELLO CHEESECAKE
I got this recipe in 1980 when I worked at University of Michigan hospital. The ward secretary on our unit always brought this to our potluck lunches. Everyone loves it because of its great cheesecake flavor without the heaviness of regular cheesecake. Easy to make, easier to eat!

- Add cream cheese to Jello mixture, breaking cheese up with a potato masher or the beaters of an electric mixer.

My mother-in-law was kind enough to give me this recipe. She makes it for my husband's birthday every year. I have never been able to make it as good as her.
