To make the Crust

Lightly grease the bottom and sides of a 9-inch springform pan with non-stick spray. Mix together the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter and press into the bottom of the pan to form a crust. Refrigerate while making the filling.

To make the Filling

Whisk together the boiling water and raspberry Jello until fully dissolved. Let cool to room temperature (but do not refrigerate or allow to set).

Place the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar in a large mixing bowl and beat with an electric handheld mixer, starting on low and increasing to high speed for 2 minutes or until fluffy and smooth. Add the vanilla extract and lemon juice and mix until incorporated.

Next, add the room temperature Jello mixture and mix at low speed until combined. Lastly, add the whipping cream and mix, starting at low speed and increasing to high as the mixture comes together. Beat at high speed for 1 minute or until fluffy and slightly thickened (it will still be quite runny but it will set in the fridge). Pour into the pan over the prepared crust and tap the pan on the counter a few times to release air bubbles.

Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set before serving. Serve with whipped cream and fresh raspberries, if desired. Enjoy!

Tips & Tricks (5)

Bloom the Jello Perfectly 🫧
Let the boiling water sit with Jello powder for 2 minutes before stirring, then chill to syrupy consistency (about 30-45 minutes) before folding into cream cheese to prevent lumps and ensure even pink color distribution.
Room Temperature Cream Cheese is Essential 🧈
Remove cream cheese from the refrigerator 30 minutes before mixing to ensure it blends smoothly with whipping cream and powdered sugar, preventing grainy texture in your filling.
Toast Your Graham Cracker Crust 🍯
Lightly toast the graham cracker crumbs in a dry pan for 2-3 minutes before mixing with melted butter to deepen flavor and add complexity that complements the tart raspberry Jello.
Whip Cream to Stiff Peaks Last 🎀
Fold freshly whipped cream into your raspberry-cream cheese mixture as the final step just before pouring—this maintains maximum airiness and creates the lightest, fluffiest texture.
Use Lemon Juice Strategically 🍋
Add lemon juice gradually and taste-test to balance the sweetness of powdered sugar and Jello; the acidity brightens flavors and prevents the dessert from tasting one-dimensional.
