Molded Cherry Coke Salad
|
Ingredients:
- 1/2 cup very cold water
- 3 pkg. Knox unflavored gelatin
- 4 cups flat Diet Rite cola *
- 1 pkg. unsweetened Black Cherry Kool Aid
- 3 packets Splenda
- 8 oz. cream cheese
- 1/2 cup fresh grated coconut
- 1/2 cup chopped celery
- 1/2 cup pecans
Soften gelatin in cold water for about 2 minutes in a glass measuring cup.
Set cup in the microwave and cook on high for 1 1/2 minutes. Stir well and
check to see if you can see through it. If not, microwave for a few more
seconds. Pour into a large bowl. Add flat cola, sweetener, and
Kool-Aid. Stir until there is no fizz at all.
Place 1 cup of this liquid mixture into blender with cream cheese and whip
until the cheese is completely blended. Pour cream cheese mixture back into the
bowl with rest of mixture. Stir to blend. Place in the refrigerator and watch it
for the beginning signs of gelling. Stir occasionally to keep cream cheese
blended. When mixture begins to thicken, add pecans, coconut, and celery. It should
be thick enough to suspend the chopped ingredients at this point. Now is the
time to pour it in an elegant mold if you like. Return to refrigerator and
allow to set firm. Serve with low-carb whipped cream and/or diced strawberries.
* To flatten Diet Rite, pour from bottle or can into glass rapidly and then into another
glass. Go back and forth between glasses until very little fizz is left.
Makes 8 servings. 4.2 net grams of carbohydrate per serving.
