MOM'S THANKSGIVING CRANBERRY JELLO MOLD



Mom's Thanksgiving Cranberry Jello Mold image

A MUST for us! A neighbor in Omaha had given this to my Mom in the early'60's and she has made it every Thanksgiving since. Now I make the holiday, so I make the mold! It's very easy. Keep in mind that this has walnuts just in case you have guests who are allergic to nuts. Enjoy! *You can make this 2 days before serving so I will make it on the Tuesday before Thanksgiving and keep it in the mold in the refrigerator and just unmold it before serving.

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients:
2 packages (0.3 ounce size) sugar-free cherry or rasberry flavored gelatin mix
2 cups boiling water
1 can (16 ounce size) jellied cranberry sauce
1 can (20 ounce size) crushed pineapple, drained
1/2 cup chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Directions: Combine the gelatin and boiling water; stir until gelatin is dissolved. Mix in cranberry sauce and pineapple. Transfer to glass serving dishes. Sprinkle with chopped nuts. Chill until set and serve.

Tips

  • Use fresh cranberries for the best flavor. If you can't find fresh cranberries, you can use frozen cranberries, but thaw them completely before using.
  • To make the cranberry sauce, you can use either a food processor or a blender. If you use a food processor, pulse the cranberries until they are finely chopped. If you use a blender, blend the cranberries on high speed until they are smooth.
  • If you don't have a bundt pan, you can use a 9x13 inch baking pan. Just be sure to grease and flour the pan before pouring in the Jello mixture.
  • To make the whipped cream topping, you can use either heavy cream or whipping cream. If you use heavy cream, you will need to whip it for a longer period of time to get stiff peaks.
  • Garnish the cranberry Jello mold with fresh cranberries, mint leaves, or grated orange zest before serving.
