 Place cherries in random style for sliced pears, or if using pear halves, place a cherry in each pear core center. |
Add a photoMy aunt made this gelatin frequently in winter especially during the holidays, and with its predominant green and red colors, it makes an appealing luncheon dessert. The recipe posted is as close as my memories allowed. However today with the variety of health issues guests may have, I frequently offer 2 versions, the one below and a modified one substituting sugar-free gelatin, fat-free non-dairy topping, and non-nutritive sweetener to replace the sugar.
Ингредиенты
- 1 3-ounce package lime gelatin
- 1 cup boiling water
- 1 14 1/2-ounce can pears water-packed (halves or slices), drained and juice reserved
- 6-8 whole maraschino cherries, drained
- 1/2 cup unwhipped whipping cream
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans
- 1/4 cup quartered maraschino cherries, drained
- 1-2 tablespoons maraschino cherry juice
- 1 tablespoon powdered sugar
