Instructions for Tropical Layered Dessert

I made this last night. Got the recipe out of a box of jello. It was great, but next time I wont make the crust so thick. I probably should have used a bigger pan. Next time Im going to add nuts. Hope you like it. Stir boiling water into gelatin in large bowl at least 2 minutes until completely dissolved. Stir in cold water and fruit cocktail. Refrigerate 1 1/4 hrs or until slightly thickened (consistency of unbeaten egg whites). Mix crumbs, butter, coconut and 1/4 cup of the sugar in 13x9" (I used a smaller one) pan. Press firmly onto bottom of pan. Refrigerate until ready to fill. Beat cream cheese, remaining 1/4 cup sugar and milk in large bowl until smooth. Gently stir in 2 cups of the whipped topping and pineapple. Spread evenly over crust. Spoon gelatin over cream cheese layer. Refrigerate 4 hrs or until firm. Serve with remaining whipped topping. Store leftover dessert in refrigerator. Makes 16 servings. Posted to TNT - Prodigys Recipe Exchange Newsletter by "Lewis" on Apr 9, 1997
