Fruit Cheesecake Recipe

Fruit cheesecake was one of the desserts I made for the Holidays. This is a recipe from JELL-O. With that being said, the recipe makes good use of lemon flavored JELL-O instant pudding. I found the lemon flavor to be very refreshing, a very good changeup from your normal cheesecake flavor. Others though, felt the lemon flavor might have been a little too strong, I will let you decide. If you don’t like lemon, you could leave it out. The crust is pretty basic with Nilla wafers, sugar and butter. The cheesecake is topped with an assortment of fresh fruits and cool whip. You can use whichever fruits you like and whichever type of cool whip you prefer. I tried this with regular and strawberry flavored; I personally preferred the strawberry. Enjoy.
