Directions:

Dissolve Jell-O in 4 cups boiling water. Add 3 cups chilled water. Fill bottom of mold with 2 inches of Jell-O. Chill until slightly thickened.

Press cherries into semi-set Jell-O about 2 inches apart allowing for 1 cherry per slice. Press half or whole pineapple slices on top. Return to refrigerator or freezer.

Meanwhile, blend 1/3 of remaining Jell-O with 4 tablespoons of sour cream. Add this to mold when first layer is set. Return to freezer or refrigerator.

Meanwhile, mix drained crushed pineapple to remainder of Jell-O. Add to the well-set mold forming the bottom layer. Cover with plastic and place level to chill thoroughly.

To unmold, place mold in hot water for a few seconds. Place serving plate on top of mold and invert quickly.

Top with Cherry Dressing: Blend equal parts sour cream and mayonnaise. Add several well-chopped cherries and a dash of cherry liquid for color.
