Preparation

Step 1

Crust:
Crush vanilla wafer crumbs and cover bottom of 9x13 pan with half of the crumbs.

Filling:
Dissolve Jello and sugar in water in medium sized bowl. Place in refrigerator until it just begins to set.

When Jello mixture starts to set add 2 T. lemon juice to chilled evaporated milk in a large bowl. Beat until it almost fills the bowl. Add 4 T. lemon juice to Jello and mix slightly. Pour Jello into evaporated milk and beat until combined. Pour over crumbs and cover with remaining crumbs. Refrigerate several hours or overnight.

This is a pretty holiday dessert if made with red or green jello. Very light and is also nice in the summer.
