I have been making this for my family since I was 8...I'm not sure where I first found this recipe(in 1978) but I remember being tickled that it had Cherry Coke in it and have been making it ever since...

Ingredients

1 small pkg: black cherry jello (or cherry)

How to Make Cherry Coke Salad

Step-by-Step

1Heat 1 cup cherry coke to a boiling point and add jello and stir to dissolve.
2Add remaining one cup of cherry coke which has been chilled. Stir.
3Add cherries and pecans. Pour into a shallow mold or bowl.
4Chill until firm. Best if you hide it in the back of the fridge and wait til everyone is asleep and eat it all yourself. :-) When I do this I top with a half a tub of cool whip.
