This is a very delicious dessert that was an explosion of flavors.It is a wonderous and delicious dessert for any special accation. I recomend this recipe to any one who loves to cook.I rated this with 5 stars. -
I have made this salad many times and it is always enjoyed by all. However, this recipe leaves out one VERY IMPORTANT step...you mix the juices, sugar, flour and eggs together and boil them until thickened stirring constantly to avoid scrambling the eggs. Let this mixture cool separately from the pasta and fruit. When cooled, mix the pasta, fruit and thickened (and cooked) sauce together. Add the cool whip to desired consistency. I top mine with marachino cherries. The recipe as it is posted here would have people eating RAW eggs.
