1 (6 ounce) package orange Jell-O
2 cups boiling water
1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple
8 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 (15 ounce) can apricot halves, drained and chopped
1/2 cup chopped walnuts

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh apricots. If fresh apricots are not available, you can use canned apricots, but be sure to drain them well before using.
  • If you are using a sugar substitute, be sure to use one that is heat stable. Some sugar substitutes can lose their sweetness when heated.
  • Be careful not to overcook the gelatin. If the gelatin is overcooked, it will become tough and rubbery.
  • Let the gelatin salad chill for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the gelatin to set properly.
  • Serve the gelatin salad with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of chopped nuts.
