Everybunny at your Easter meal's bound to love this smooth medleytake it from Gail Kuntz. I have to admit, anything containing cream cheese is automatically a winner with me, the Dillon, Montana cook laughingly confides. With that ingredient plus tangy oranges, gelatin and fluffy marshmallows, this salad is always a hit with others who try it, too. Ingredients:
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
1 package (3 ounces) orange gelatin |
1-1/2 cups boiling water |
2 cans (15 ounces each) mandarin oranges, drained |
1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped |
1-1/2 cups miniature pastel marshmallows, divided |
maraschino cherry, optional |
Directions:
1. In a bowl, cream cheese and gelatin powder. Stir in water until gelatin is dissolved. Refrigerate for 1 hour or until thickened, stirring frequently. Set aside 10-12 oranges for garnish.
2. Fold whipped cream, 3/4 cup marshmallows and remaining oranges into gelatin mixture. Transfer to a 2-1/2-qt. serving bowl. Sprinkle with the remaining marshmallows.
3. Chill until firm. Garnish with reserved oranges and a maraschino cherry if desired. Yield: 8-10 servings.
