Pretty slices of this refreshing salad are dotted with colorful cherries for a festive look. The flavor is pleasant and not overly sweet. Prepared in advance and frozen, it's a treat that fits into many different menus. I serve it throughout the year. Â -Gail Sykora, Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin Ingredients:
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
1 carton (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed |
1 can (21 ounces) cherry pie filling |
2 cans (11 ounces each) mandarin oranges, drained |
maraschino cherries and orange wedges, optional |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the cream cheese and whipped topping. Stir in pie filling. Set aside 1/4 cup oranges for garnish. Fold remaining oranges into cream cheese mixture.
2. Transfer to a 9-in. x 5-in. loaf pan. Cover and freeze overnight. Remove from the freezer 15 minutes before cutting. Garnish with the reserved mandarin oranges, cherries and oranges if desired. Yield: 12 servings.
