Medium Perforated Baking Sheet (MA435310)

INGREDIENTS
1 ½ C crushed graham crackers
¼ C sugar
1/3 C butter, melted
1 Envelope unflavored gelatin
½ C Cold water
1 16oz Can Light Peaches, drained (save juice)
1 8oz Package Light Cream Cheese, softened
¼ Cup sugar

Place the Mold of your choice on the Perforated Baking sheet set aside. Using mixing bowl combine the crumbs, sugar and butter and blend well. Press into the bottom of the mold and refrigerate for approx. 30 minutes. Next, in blender, sprinkle gelatin over water and let stand for 2 minutes. In sauce pan, bring the saved peach juice to a boil. Add the hot juice to the blender and process on low until the gelatin is completely dissolved.
