What You Need

1/2

cup sliced fresh strawberries

3/4

cup boiling water

pkg. (0.3 oz.) JELL-O Strawberry Flavor Sugar Free Gelatin

1/2

cup cold water

3/4

cup ice cubes

cup plus 6 Tbsp. thawed COOL WHIP LITE Whipped Topping, divided

Make It

PLACE berries into 6 parfait glasses. Add boiling water to gelatin mix in medium bowl; stir 2 min. until completely dissolved. Add cold water and ice cubes; stir until ice is melted. Pour 3/4 cup evenly over berries. Refrigerate 20 min. or until gelatin is set but not firm. Meanwhile, let remaining gelatin stand at room temperature until cooled and ready to be used.

ADD 1 cup COOL WHIP to remaining gelatin; stir with whisk until blended. Spoon over gelatin in glasses.

REFRIGERATE 1 hour or until firm. Serve topped with remaining COOL WHIP.

Kraft Kitchens Tips

Variation

Prepare using JELL-O Orange Flavor Sugar Free Gelatin and substituting cantaloupe balls for the strawberries.

Special Extra

Add 1/2 cup seedless grapes with the strawberries.

Storing Fresh Fruit

Most fruits keep best when stored in the refrigerator. Berries, cherries and plums should not be washed before refrigeration, since excess moisture will cause these fruits to spoil more quickly.

The fact that this recipe is so low in Carbs this day and age makes it a hit with a lot of people like me who likes some sweet, but are afraid of going overboard with carbs. I will make this over and over again....thank you

Absolutely delicious, I have just started Weight Watchers and I needed a low-point dessert without having to give up flavor. I loved it and I will definately be making it again.
