A delightful and creamy gelatin dessert featuring the refreshing taste of pears.
Dissolve the gelatin in the boiling water in a large bowl, stirring until fully dissolved.
Ensure the water is boiling to fully dissolve the gelatin for a smooth texture.
Cut the cream cheese into small cubes and place them in the blender.
Softened cream cheese blends more easily, so let it sit at room temperature for a while.
Pour the gelatin mixture over the cream cheese in the blender, cover, and blend until smooth.
Hold the blender lid securely to avoid spills.
Pour the blended mixture into a refrigerator-safe mold.
Lightly grease the mold for easier unmolding later.
Blend the canned pears, including the juice, in the blender until smooth.
Use fresh pears for a more natural flavor, but add a bit of water if needed.
Gently stir the pear puree into the gelatin mixture in the mold until well combined.
Stir gently to maintain the smooth texture of the mixture.
Refrigerate the mold until the gelatin is fully set, about 4 hours.
Cover the mold with plastic wrap to prevent any odors from the fridge affecting the dessert.
Serve the dessert chilled, optionally garnished with whipped cream or fresh mint leaves.
Run warm water over the outside of the mold briefly to help release the dessert.
