Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

2 cups boiling water
1 pkg. (8-serving size) JELL-O Cranberry Flavor Gelatin, or any red flavor
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/8 tsp. ground cloves
1-1/2 cups cold cranberry juice cocktail or water
1 cup sliced strawberries
1 can (11 oz.) mandarin oranges, drained
2 cups thawed COOL WHIP Whipped Topping

Steps:

Stir boiling water into combined gelatin and spices in large bowl at least 2 minutes until completely dissolved. Stir in cold juice. Remove 1-1/2 cups of the gelatin; set aside for later use. Refrigerate remaining gelatin 1-1/2 hours or until thickened (spoon drawn through leaves definite impression). Stir in fruit. Spoon into 7-cup mold sprayed with cooking spray. Refrigerate 30 minutes or until set but not firm (gelatin should stick to finger when touched and should mound).
Meanwhile, refrigerate reserved gelatin 1-1/4 hours or until slightly thickened (consistency of unbeaten egg whites). Stir in whipped topping with wire whisk until well blended. Spoon over gelatin layer in mold.
Refrigerate 4 hours or until firm. Unmold. Garnish as desired. Store leftover gelatin in refrigerator.
