This ambrosia is truly worthy of the gods...it goes well with nectar. j/k I bring this to to many gatherings & have learned to bring copies of the recipe to put next to the bowl. Its ridiculously easy to make. If you're not a maraschino cherry fan, just leave them out.

CHERRY AMBROSIA

This is a recipe I found online. It looks yummy but to be honest I haven't tried it yet. We grill out year round so I will be trying it soon. I love toasted pound cake and this takes it a step up.

CHERRY PARTY AMBROSIA



Cherry Party Ambrosia image

I am not big on ambrosia usually, but this stuff is great. It turns out pink because of the cherries, so it is great for Christmas, Valentines, girl's tea parties, etc. Serve in clear footed dishes, and it makes it extra pretty. Not too sure of can/container sizes, just use the regular size Cool Whip, pineapple, etc. Since this is ambrosia you can play with the ingredients a bit,but we really thought this was the perfect balance.
