Frozen Delight salad

Sorry about not putting a recipe up yesterday, but where the computer is at their is no heat in that room and with -5 degrees ....I think that is a little cold.

Frozen Delight Salad
Mrs. James C. Huff Jr.

1 box lime gelatin
1 ( 3 oz ) cream cheese, softened to room temperature
1 box whipped cream dessert topping
3 Tablespoons salad dressing or mayonnaise
2 Tablespoon lemon juice or lime juice
1 9 No. 303 ) can fruit cocktail, well drained
3/4 cup pecans or walnuts , chopped
2 cups miniature marshmallows
few drops of green food coloring

Prepare gelatin according to directions, using only half the amount of hot and cold water. Let it chill until it begins to set. Whip cream cheese until light and fluffy, adding salad dressing, lemon or lime juice and food coloring. When gelatin has begun to set, whip it lightly and fold in dessert topping and cream cheese mixture. Add fruit cocktail, nutmeats and marshmallows. Pour into lightly greased mold or into cupcake papers, place in cupcake pans and freeze until firm. Serve on lettuce leaves and garnish with walnut halves and maraschino cherries. Will keep for several weeks in freezer
