CHERRY COKE SALAD
Jello salad is taken to a new level with this salad! I got this recipe years ago from one of the ladies at church and it is a favorite at the holidays, funerals and potlucks. Note: Prep time includes chilling time. I like to make this a day ahead of serving so it has time to thoroughly set.

Steps:
- 1. Drain the cherry syrup and pineapple juices into a saucepan. Set the fruit aside in the refrigerator to chill. Bring fruit juices to a boil, remove from heat and whisk in the Jello powder until fully dissolved.
- 2. Transfer to a 4 cup glass measuring cup and add enough Coca-Cola to equal a total of 4 cups of liquid. You can also substitute additional Dr Pepper or cherry coke to make up the full 4 cups; transfer to a bowl and stir in the pineapple, cherries, and nuts. Can also pour into 9x13 glass pan if desired.
- 3. Allow to fully set for at least 3 to 5 hours or longer - do not stir! Once it is set, mix the topping ingredients and frost the salad.
- 4. For the topping, cream together the cream cheese and sugar; stir in the Cool Whip until well combined. Carefully frost the set-up salad with the topping. Cover with Saran wrap and refrigerate until ready to serve.
