Description

This cranberry Jell-O salad with sour cream is easy to make with black cherry gelatin and canned cranberry sauce for a simple, pretty, swirled dessert.

Ingredients

1 (16 ounce) can jellied cranberry sauce
2 (3 ounce) packages black cherry-flavored gelatin mix (such as Jell-O®)
1 3/4 cups boiling water
1 (16 ounce) carton sour cream

Directions

1 Mash jellied cranberry sauce in a 3-quart bowl. Stir in gelatin mix until thoroughly combined. Pour in boiling water; stir until gelatin has dissolved completely, about 3 minutes. Chill in the refrigerator until softly set, 2 to 3 hours.
2 Gently fold sour cream into chilled cranberry gelatin, leaving marbled streaks of sour cream and gelatin. Return to the refrigerator until firmly set, 4 hours to overnight. Store leftovers in the refrigerator.
