When it comes to creamy coleslaw: Kentucky Fried Chicken's Coleslaw RULES, REIGNS and ROCKS. As much for the texture as for flavor -- KFC has Got it Right. A mouthful of Heavenly Mush. After extensive research and trials in the kitchen, this is about as close as it gets. It's addictive -- And KFC always leaves you wanting more. Hope this has the same effect.

Ingredients

1/2 cup mayonnaise ( prefer hellmanns)
1/3 cup sugar granulated
1/3 cup milk
1/3 cup buttermilk (you can sub with 2 teaspoon sour cream)
2 tablespoons lemon juice fresh or real lemon from bottle

How To Make kfc - creamy coleslaw - clone

Step 1

Shred or mince cabbage, carrots and onions very fine, to size of a grain of rice.

Step 2

Mix mayo, sugar, milk, buttermilk or sour cream, lemon juice, white vinegar, salt and pepper until smooth.
Step 3

Add sauce to the well mixed and well distributed cabbage, carrots and onion. Stir and incorporate well.
Step 4

Place in refrigerator and allow at least 2 hours before serving. Best if allowed to set in fridge overnight.
Step 5

Note: A food processor works best for mincing the veggies. The alternative is the smaller holes of a handheld shredder. Yields about a quart and a half.
Step 6

As I noted, much of the appeal of KFC's slaw is the texture as well as the flavor. Enjoy!
