Luscious fruit, cream cheese and gelatin come together to create an easy side dish for any occasion. The chopped pecans dotting the bottom layer provide a pleasing crunch, notes Mrs. Eugene Braunschweig of Delafield, Wisconsin. "It's a very satisfying salad," she adds.

Save Crumbs for Topping Ice Cream

This dish in incredibly sweet; not sure how to remedy that, perhaps substitute Cool Whip for the Dream Whip. Or use fresh fruit rather than canned pie filling.
