Cranberry-Eggnog Gelatin Salad

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 30 min. Cook: 5 min. + chilling YIELD: 16 servings.
Refreshing and bursting with flavor, this festive jello salad is a great choice for a holiday potluck or make ahead Thanksgiving side. The sweet pineapple-eggnog layer contrasts nicely with the cool and tangy gelatin on top. Since it has to chill overnight, it’s a good pick for those dishes you want to prepare a day ahead. —Nancy Foust, Stoneboro, Pennsylvania

Ingredients

  • 2 cups boiling water
