Place the candy and water in a pot. Bring to a boil, stirring to dissolve the candy. Add jello powder and stir until it is dissolved. Stir in applesauce and ice cubes until ice cubes are melted. Pour into a bowl and refrigerate until set (1 hour or more). NOTES: * Applesauce jello salad -A delicious jello salad, taken from The Monterey Coast Guard Officers' Wives Club Cookbook. My sister-in-law was the president of the club which put that cookbook together. * Substituting apple cider or apple juice for the water adds tremendous taste. We prefer homemade chunky style applesauce to processed commercial brands. : Difficulty: easy. : Time: 10 minutes preparation, 1-3 hours to chill. : Precision: approximate measurement OK. : Sue LoVerso : Encore Computer Corp.
