Cranberry Salad

sent in by Quannah

(This is a really pretty salad for Thanksgiving or Christmas)

3-3 oz. pkgs. cherry gelatin
3 cups boiling water
1-20 oz. can crushed pineapple, drained (save juice)
2-16 oz. cans whole cranberry sauce
1 - 8oz. pkg cream cheese
Mayonnaise
1 cup chopped pecans

Dissolve gelatin in boiling water. Add pineapple and cranberry sauce. Pour half of this into a 7" x 13" pan (I have a really pretty decorative glass dish that I use) and refrigerate until congealed. Mix cream cheese with a little mayonnaise and enough pineapple juice to spread easily.
Spread on the congealed mixture and sprinkle nuts on top. Pressing gently into cream cheese. Pour the remaining cranbery mixture on top and return to refrigerator to congeal.
