1 small cream cheese
1 cup mayonnaise
6 maraschino cherries
6 green mint cherries
1/2 pint cream
Grate the American cheese. Add cream cheese, and mayonnaise dressing and beat thoroughly. Fold in 6 maraschino cherries and 6 green mint cherries, chopped fine, and 1/2 pint cream, beaten stiff. Freeze until set. Remove to serving dish and sprinkle with 1/2 cup chopped nuts or paprika. Serve with salad course.
To those of you brave enough to make this, please send us photos. Yum?

I would freeze it FOREVER! Sounds like food abuse or food as punishment.
I was wondering what to serve as a salad course this holiday. Now I know! Thanks Devil's Tale, you may have saved my dinner party.Seriously though, the collections hold so many of these gems of not-so-yesteryear. Thanks for highlighting them.
