By Joelene

Ingredients

• For the gelatin:
• Non stick cooking spray
• 1 envelope unflavored gelatin or 1/4 of a 1 oz. package
• 1/2 cup water
• 1 12 oz. can evaporated milk
• 1 3/4 cup cajeta (goat milk spread) or caramel
• 8 oz. cream cheese, room temperature

Preparation

Step 1

Sprinkle gelatin on water. Let stand about 2 minutes to soften. Microwave on high for 45 seconds. Stir for 15 seconds, until gelatin is dissolved.

In a 2-quart sauce pan heat evaporated milk until hot, making sure not to boil. Stir in cajeta, using a whisk until smooth and evenly incorporated. Stir in gelatin mixture to cajeta mixture. Place 1/3 of a cup of gelatin mixture in a medium bowl, add soften cream cheese, and beat using a hand mixer over medium speed until smooth. Slowly pour in gelatin mixture and continue beating until it is smooth, about 2 minutes. Strain mixture into a mixing bowl. Pour 1 cup into a wine glass and continue doing so for the remainder glasses. Garnish with 3-5 fresh raspberries. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight.
