Why Choose This Recipe

  • Fluffy, Creamy, Easy
  • 5 Ingredients!
  • Full of fresh berries!

Ingredient Notes

  • Berries - You can use strawberries, raspberries, or both!
  • Cool Whip - You can substitute 2 Cups of fresh whipped cream instead.
  • Pudding Mix - must be cooked and served. Instant pudding mixes don't work well for this recipe.

Step-by-Step Instructions

  • Combine a small package of strawberry jello (or raspberry jello if you're making this with raspberries instead),  a small package of Cook and Serve Vanilla pudding, and 2 cups of water in a pot on the stove.  
  • There is a difference between instant and cook-and-serve puddings, so make sure you have the cook-and-serve kind.  
  • Whisk those together and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.
  • After it has boiled for 1 minute, pour the jello into a glass bowl.
  • Cover and refrigerate until cool (about an hour)
  • To cool faster, place the bowl over a container of ice.
Pudding mix, jello mix and water boiled and poured into a bowl.
  • Beat the chilled jello until it's completely smooth and no lumps remain.
  • Beat in the cool whip.
  • Fold in your berries of choice and refrigerate for another 2 hours before serving.

Recipe FAQs and Expert Tips

Can I substitute real whipped cream for the Cool Whip?

Yes, you can; you will need 2 Cups whipped cream, which is 1 cup heavy cream beat to stiff peaks.

How long is this good for?

If stored in the fridge, this salad is good for up to 4 days.

What can I serve this jello salad with?

This salad goes great with some Marinated Chicken or Grilled Steak! Definitely check out my other Salad and Side Recipes!

    I used sugar free Jello and pudding and light cool whip. I used cheesecake pudding. Very good. I used as a weight watchers dessert.
