Crown Jewel Dessert recipes (1960s)
Crown Jewel Dessert as a mold, a pie, and a spring-form pan dessert!
Also known as Broken Window Glass Cake, this is a spectacular dessert that fits busy schedules — the gelatin for cubes may be made one day, the remainder of dessert can wait until the next day.
*Instead of crumb-butter mixture, you can use 16 to 18 ladyfingers (split) to line pan. NOTE: Other Jell-O Gelatin fruit flavors may be used instead of those suggested in recipe, forming any combination of colors desired. For instance, make all the cubes of Jell-O Black Raspberry or Lime Gelatin and substitute Jell-O Strawberry Gelatin for the lemon gelatin.
