Off with the shoes and on with the simple summer pleasure of fresh fruit. This gorgeous dessert tastes like a mini berry pie, complete with creamy COOL WHIP.

• YUM-O! Next time I will use the 2 entire pkgs of cream cheese & increase the sugar a bit. Will use 2 cups of cool whip and a 6 oz pkg of jello as the 3 oz barely covered the fruit. Great alternative to strawberry shortcake. Very light desert.
