Cranberry-Cream Cheese Jello Mold

1 1/2 c boiling water
1 (8 serving size) JELL-O cranberry flavor
1 1/2 c. cold water
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1 granny smith apple (chopped)
1 c. whole berry cranberry sauce
1 pkg (8oz) cream-cheese softened

Make JELL-O as described on package direction, but add 1 tsp. ground cinnamon. Remove 1 c. of the gelatin and set aside. Refrigerate the rest for 1 1/2 hours or until thickened (spoon drawn through leaves definite impression).

Add apples and cranberry sauce to thickened JELL-O; stir gently. Spoon into 6 cup mold sprayed with cooking spray. Refrigerate for 30 minutes of until gelatin is set but not firm. Place cream cheese in another medium bowl. Gradually add reserved 1 cup gelatin, beating with wire whisk until well blended. Pour over gelatin in mold.

Refrigerate for 4 hours or until firm. Unmold onto serving plate. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.

*This recipe comes from the JELL-O website. I used raspberry flavor instead of cranberry as the recipe calls for. I refrigerated the final product overnight to ensure it was firm before serving. Served Thanksgiving 2010.
