Fancy Waldorf Salad

Submitted by Chicagoland Chef du Jour

"I served this to a crowd of 50 women at my sis's bridal shower about 20 years ago. They loved it, as did I. What makes it "fancy"? It has whipping cream as an ingredient. My notes says it's from page 321 of Better Homes & Garden Cookbook."
