Special fruit salad
16 Servings
Ingredients
| Quantity | Ingredient | |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | cans | (large) sliced peaches |
| 2 | cups | Water |
| ⅔ | cup | Brown sugar |
| 2 | teaspoons | Whole cloves |
| 2 | Sticks cinnamon | |
| ½ | cup | White vinegar |
| 1 | pack | (6-oz) orange gelatin |
| 2 | packs | (3-oz) cream cheese |
| 2 | tablespoons | Mayonnaise |
| ¼ | cup | Milk (up to) |
| ½ | cup | Chopped nuts |
Directions
Simmer peaches for 30-45 minutes with water, brown sugar, whole cloves, cinnamon & vinegar. Strain cloves & cinnamon out. Add gelatin to liquid & peaches. Pour half the mixture into a 9x13-inch pan. Chill until firm. Mix softened cream cheese, mayonnaise, milk & nuts. Spread cheese mixture to form a middle layer. Pour remaining gelatin over this. Chill again until firm. This takes time & seems to be a lot of trouble, but the salad is well worth it all. Really delicious & different.
