Prepare according to directions

Stir thoroughly, until entirely dissolved. Then chill in refrigerator.

When mixture starts to thicken, add

1 package fruit-flavored gelatin

2 cups cut-up fruit, drained

Pour into ring mold, square pan, or fancy mold if you have one. Chill until set.

Unmold by dipping quickly in hot water. Gelatin slips out easily.

Serve plain or with cream.

6 servings.

To make gelatin in colored layers as photographed on page 156 is easy. Just let each layer set before you add the next one.

Bananas and strawberries are good together.

Raspberries and peaches are go-togethers, too, and canned pineapple with sweet cherries.

But never use fresh or frozen pineapple! It keeps the gelatin runny.

Wash, peel, quarter, and core

8 medium apples

Add water about 1/2-inch deep in pan. Cover tightly and bring to a boil (about 5 minutes). Turn down heat and simmer until tender.

Stir in to taste about 1/2 cup sugar

Reheat to boiling.

Sprinkle lightly with cinnamon or nutmeg and serve warm or cold.
