It used to be that you couldn't go into a diner without having a cherry cola. Cherry Cola Parfaits give you that same old-time taste and feel in a gelatin dessert.

What You'll Need

  • 2 (4-serving) packages cherry-flavored gelatin
  • 1 2/3 cup boiling water
  • 2 cup carbonated cola
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts
  • 1 cup chopped maraschino cherries
  • 1/3 cup frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • 3 plastic drinking straws, each cut in half

What to Do

  1. Place gelatin in a large bowl and add boiling water; stir until gelatin is dissolved then stir in the cola.
     
  2. Chill for about 45 minutes then stir in the chopped walnuts and cherries. Evenly divide the gelatin into 6 dessert glasses (1 cup per glass) and chill for 1 hour.
     
  3. Top each with a dollop of whipped topping and garnish with straws (just for fun).
