Eggnog Molded Salad

• 1 teaspoon unflavored gelatin
• 1 can (15-1/4 ounces) sliced pears
• 1 package (6 ounces) lemon gelatin
• 1 cup sour cream
• 3/4 cup eggnog
• 1 can (11 ounces) mandarin oranges, drained
• Orange slices, maraschino cherries and mint leaves, optional

1. In a small bowl, sprinkle unflavored gelatin over 1/4 cup cold water; let stand 1 minute.
2. Drain pears over a 2-cup measuring cup, reserving syrup. Add enough water to the syrup to measure 2 cups; pour into a saucepan. Bring to a boil; remove from heat. Add lemon gelatin and unflavored gelatin mixture; stir 2 minutes to dissolve completely. Cool 15 minutes.
3. Stir in sour cream and eggnog until well blended. Refrigerate until partially set.
4. Cut oranges and drained pears into chunks; stir into gelatin mixture. Pour into a 6-cup ring mold coated with cooking spray. Refrigerate, covered, until firm. If desired, serve with oranges, cherries and mint.
