Lemon-Strawberry Mousse Squares

I made this dessert for Easter this year and it was a huge hit. Very simple and easy also.

48 NILLA Wafers, divided
3/4 cup boiling water
1 pkg. (3 oz.) Sugar Free JELL-O Lemon Flavor Gelatin
1 cup ice cubes
1 pkg. (8 oz.) 1/3 less fat Cream Cheese, softened
1/4 cup sugar
1 tub (8 oz.) Fat Free COOL WHIP Whipped Topping, thawed, divided
1/3 cup strawberry preserves
1-1/2 cups fresh or frozen strawberries sprinkled with 2tsp sugar

STAND 16 wafers around edge of plastic wrap-lined 8-inch square pan. Add boiling water to gelatin mix; stir 2 min. until completely dissolved. Stir in ice until melted.

BEAT next 3 ingredients in large bowl with mixer until blended. Gradually beat in gelatin. Whisk in 2 cups COOL WHIP.

POUR half the gelatin mixture into prepared pan; cover with 16 wafers. Microwave preserves on HIGH 15 sec. or until melted; brush onto wafers. Top with remaining gelatin mixture and wafers.

REFRIGERATE 4 hours or until firm. Invert dessert onto plate; top with remaining COOL WHIP and fruit.


Makes 16 Servings
