Eggnog Fruit Salad

Submitted by CoffeeB

"This recipe is from a GooseberryPatch book. Welcome Home for the Holidays. I don't want to take the credit here as it is a fabulous holiday salad. A twist on the usual Ambrosia Salad. The only variation I made was to use pears instead of peaches."

I had some leftover recipe #185162 so thought I'd try this. I couldn't find dreamwhip here so tried adding some whippet paste to thicken it up, that didn't work, I think becausee I used light cream in my eggnog. So mine was a little soupy only due to lack of ingredients. This tasted great & I want to make it again when I can get one of my future swap partners to send dreamwhip over for me.:wink: Thanks CB!
