Step-by-Step Instructions for Lemon Fluff
  1. In a medium mixing bowl, whisk together the lemon jello and 2 cups of boiling water until fully dissolved. Let it cool to room temperature for about 20 minutes.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, blend softened cream cheese and crushed pineapple using a hand mixer on low speed until smooth, then increase to medium-high for an additional 30 seconds.
  3. Once the jello has cooled, gently pour it into the cream cheese and pineapple mixture. Blend on low speed for about 10 seconds, then increase to medium speed until smooth.
  4. Fold in the whipped topping gently using a hand mixer on low setting for approximately 2 minutes until light and fluffy.
  5. Transfer into a large glass serving bowl. Cover tightly with cling wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours.

Notes

Letting the jello cool completely before mixing into the cream cheese prevents curdling. Using room temperature cream cheese helps avoid lumps in the dessert.
