Citrus Fluff Squares Recipe



Ingredients

1-1/2 cup finely crushed vanilla wafers

1/3 cup finely chopped pecans

6 tbsp. melted butter

i pkg. (6 oz.) lemon Jello

1-1/4 cups boiling water

1/2 cup whipping cream

1 pkg. (4 serving size) lemon instant pudding

1 pint (2 cups) lemon, or orange sherbet, softened



Directions

Combine cookie crumbs, pecans and butter, reserving 1/4 cup crumbs; press remainder into a 9 inch square dish or pan. Chill. Dissolve Jello in boiling water; cool to lukewarm.



Whip cream and set aside. Add dry pudding mix to Jello and mix well. Add sherbet and beat at low speed of electric mixer until thickened and nearly set. Fold in whipped cream.



Turn into crumb-lined pan and sprinkle with remaining crumbs. Chill at least 1 hour. cut into squares to serve.



Instead of tuna, I have also used cooked cubed chicken, ham or cocktail shrimp.
