For Filling: Dissolve Jello in boiling water; add cold water, stirring well. Chill until of egg white consistency. (A handy tip for those who are new to making jello desserts!)
Meanwhile beat cream cheese and gradually beat in marshmallow creme until fluffy. Blend in Cool Whip. Spoon over cooled crust.

Note : *Here's a good recipe for "Homemade Marshmallow Creme". Cook 1 cup milk with 36 large marshmallows over low heat, stirring until blended. Stir in 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Cool well before using.
