Ingredients:
1 16-24ounce canned fruit cocktail in heavy syrup (reserve the syrup)Bananas (cut into bite-size pieces) Orange quarters Apples (diced into cubes) Grapes (green or seedless red) Walnut pieces 1 8-ounce package cream cheese, softened Coconut (optional)
Directions:
Mix the fruit together and chill. Put the softened cream cheese in a double boiler, along with the heavy syrup drained from the fruit cocktail. Melt the cream cheese into the syrup, stirring constantly, until a thick sauce is created. If it's too thin, add more cream cheese. If it's too thick, add more syrup (white Karo will work in a pinch, but use sparingly).Pour the sauce over the chilled fruit and mix well. Top with coconut. Chill for a couple of hours. Just before serving, put a big spoonful of whipped topping on each person's serving. | |
