Ingredients

  • 1 (3 ounce) package raspberry gelatin
  • 3 cups boiling water, divided
  • 2 cups cold water
  • 1 (3 ounce) package lime gelatin
  • 1 (3 ounce) package black cherry gelatin
  • 1 cup pineapple juice
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1 (3 ounce) package strawberry gelatin
  • 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • 2 (9 inch) graham cracker crust

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, dissolve raspberry gelatin in 1 cup boiling water; stir in 1/2 cup cold water. Pour into a 9-in. x 5-in. x 3-in. loaf pan coated with nonstick cooking spray.
