This is a recipe I discovered about 25 years ago when grape gelatin was hard to find! It's a terrific side dish or a delicious dessert. It's very rich in flavor and can be made ahead of time. Also good with cherry gelatin and cherry pie filling.
Ingredients
- grape flavored Jell-O® mix: 2 packages (3 ounce packages)
- boiling water: 2 cups
- pineapple, undrained: 1 can (8 ounce can, crushed)
- blueberry pie filling: 1 can (21 ounce can)
- cream cheese: 1 pack (8 ounce pack, softened)
- sour cream: 1 cup
- white sugar: 0.5 cup
- vanilla extract: 1 tsp
