Sounds a lot like Pacific Lime Mold - we ate it so much in college we called it Specific Slime Mould. Only we used Mayo instead of Cool Whip. Dissolve 2 pkgs of lime jello in 2 c. boiling water. Add about 1 1/2 cups juice from canned pineapple. Chill until thickened. Beat until frothy. Fold in a can of crushed pineapple, 2 c creamy cottage cheese and 1 c. mayonnaise. Chill until firm.
WHIPPED LIME JELLO SALAD 1 (3 oz.) pkg. lime Jello 1 c. hot water (Heat up drained pineapple juice for part of liquid.) Mix. Stir until well dissolved. Set until jelly-like consistency then carefully whip with electric mixer. 1/2 pkg. (4 oz.) cream cheese 1 tbsp. salad dressing 1 can (15 oz.) crushed pineapple, drained 1/2 c. chopped nuts 1 c. whipping cream Whip cream until stiff. Add cream cheese and salad dressing. Mix in Jello and blend thoroughly. Fold in pineapple and nuts. Put into a pretty glass serving bowl. Top with red Jello. TOPPING: 1 (3 oz.) pkg. red Jello 1 c. hot water Mix and stir until dissolved. When cooled and thick syrupy, spread on top of above salad.
Here's my family recipe we've been making for years. Originally came from a community cookbook. Marge's Quick Salad 1 Large carton cottage cheese 1 Large package of lime jello 1 can crushed pineapple 1 Large container Cool Whip 1/2 cup chopped walnuts Combine all ingredients together. Do not drain fruit or add water to jello. Refridgerate for 1 hour or longer. Can be made ahead and kept overnight in fridge.
