Introduction
This is a special occasion food from my childhood. It is simply scrumptious! I calculated the recipe with full-fat Cool Whip and Cream cheese because that's how we did it in my childhood. I think it would probably be quite good, as well, if you substituted low fat Cool Whip, reduced-fat or Neufchatel cream cheese, sugar-free jello if they make apricot (or could use Peach jello) . I think you probably need "real" sugar in the topping to have it thick enough to set up right. This is a special occasion food from my childhood. It is simply scrumptious!
