Instructions:
| Step | Instructions |
|---|---|
| 1 | In a large bowl, dissolve the lime Jell-O gelatin in 2 cups of boiling water. Stir until completely dissolved. |
| 2 | Add 2 cups of cold water to the lime Jell-O mixture, stirring well to combine. |
| 3 | Prepare a 9×13-inch pan by coating it with non-stick spray. Pour the lime Jell-O mixture into the pan, spreading it evenly. Place it in the refrigerator and let it chill until it’s almost set, approximately 2 hours. |
| 4 | In another bowl, dissolve the lemon Jell-O gelatin in 1 cup of boiling water. Add the cream cheese to the lemon Jell-O mixture and whisk until smooth. |
| 5 | Stir in the crushed pineapple and chopped nuts into the lemon Jell-O mixture until well combined. |
| 6 | Gently fold in the whipped topping or whipped cream into the lemon Jell-O mixture, ensuring it’s evenly distributed. |
| 7 | Remove the lime Jell-O layer from the refrigerator once it’s almost set. Spread the lemon Jell-O mixture evenly over the lime layer. Return the pan to the refrigerator and let it chill until firm, approximately 1 hour. |
| 8 | In another bowl, dissolve the cherry Jell-O gelatin in 2 cups of boiling water. Stir well until the cherry Jell-O is completely dissolved. |
| 9 | Add 2 cups of cold water to the cherry Jell-O mixture and stir until combined. |
| 10 | Allow the cherry Jell-O mixture to chill until it thickens and becomes syrupy. Once thickened, carefully pour it over the lemon Jell-O layer in the pan. |
| 11 | Return the pan to the refrigerator and let it chill until the cherry Jell-O layer is completely set, approximately 4 hours. |
| 12 | Once fully set, remove the Ribbon Jello Salad from the refrigerator and slice it into squares. Serve chilled with additional whipped topping or whipped cream if desired. |
