Cream sugar and butter, add flour and nuts. Press into 9x13 pan, bake 375 for 10 minutes, cool.

1 cup hot water
1 8 oz pkg cream cheese

1/2 pt. whipping cream
Dissolve jello in hot water, cool. Cream sugar and cheese, add cooled jello gradually to sugar mixture. Add whipped cream to cheese mixture. Pour into crust and cool.

2 (3 oz) pkgs. strawberry jello

Dissolve jello in hot water and cool. When middle filling is set, lightly spoon the strawberry mixture over top, and lay in some sliced strawberries. Chill until set.
Every time I make this as written my crust doesn't set and just remains powdery. Too much flour? Too little butter? So this time I doubled the sugar and butter and had the crust set properly.
