This is a lovely layered salad to make during the holidays. You can also swirl the cream cheese mixture though the partially set jello mixture rather than using the layer method. This comes from my Beth Bowen's Favorites.
Ingredients:
2/3 cup red cinnamon candies
1 cup water
1 (3 ounce) lemon jell-o gelatin
1 1/2 cups applesauce
1/2 cup pecans (chopped) (optional)
1/2 cup celery (finely chopped)
1/2 cup miracle whip
1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese
Directions:
1. Dissolve red hots and lemon jello in hot water.
2. Add applesauce and divide into 2 equal parts; put one part in an oiled jello mold or 13x9 pan.
3. Cool until set, keep second half of jello mix at room temperature.
4. Combine remaining ingredients and spread over jello that has set up.
5. Top with room temperture jello mixture; return to refrigerator to set until firm.
6. Unmold or cut in squares.
7. If you use the swirl method, add entire jello mix to 13x9 pan, partially set, then swirl through the cheese mixture and return to refrigerator to set firm.
