Greetings Kim,
Here's my version of a 'jello cream cheese thingie', it is simply called:
Cream Cheese Dessert
Combine and stir to dissolve completely - set aside:
1 pkg 3 oz package sugar free gelatin - any flavor
1 cup boilng water
Whisk together and blend well in a separate bowl:
1 pkg 8 oz cream cheese, slightly softened
1 - 3 tablespoons Splenda [to taste]
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 cup heavy cream
1 dash salt
Put a few ice cubes in a measuring cup, add enough water to make 1/2 cup total. Add water to gelatin mixture and stir completely to dissolve.
Combine cream cheese mixture and gelatin mixture, blend well. Pour into six small serving dishes, cover and refrigerate. [the new 4 ounce Glad brand plastic storage containers with lids work very well - I unmold them to serve and add a small dollop of whipped cream]

I concocted this one so it would be very simple, yet could potentially be an elegant dessert - don't we all love simple!!
Hope you enjoy it, it is one of our favorites - "definitely a keeper", as my DH says :-).
Stay well,
Holly
