Cherry Coke Salad image

I have been making this for my family since I was 8...I'm not sure where I first found this recipe(in 1978) but I remember being tickled that it had Cherry Coke in it and have been making it ever since...

Number Of Ingredients 4

1 small pkg black cherry jello (or cherry)
1- 16oz bottle cherry coke (now i buy a 20oz and measure)
1 c black pitted cherries (or maraschino cherries)
1 c pecans, chopped (optional)

Steps:

  • 1. Heat 1 cup cherry coke to a boiling point and add jello and stir to dissolve.
  • 2. Add remaining one cup of cherry coke which has been chilled. Stir.
  • 3. Add cherries and pecans. Pour into a shallow mold or bowl.
  • 4. Chill until firm. Best if you hide it in the back of the fridge and wait til everyone is asleep and eat it all yourself. :-) When I do this I top with a half a tub of cool whip.
