Layered Cranberry-Quince Mold

Directions

1. In a large bowl stir together gelatin and sugar. Add the boiling water, stirring for 2 to 3 minutes or until gelatin and sugar are dissolved. Stir in cranberry-raspberry drink. Transfer 1 3/4 cups of the gelatin mixture to a medium bowl; cover and chill for 30 to 45 minutes or until partially set (the consistency of unbeaten egg whites). Cover the remaining gelatin mixture; set aside at room temperature.
2. Fold cranberry sauce into partially set gelatin mixture; pour into an 8-cup ring mold or 2-quart square baking dish.** Cover and chill about 30 minutes or until almost firm. Chill the remaining gelatin mixture about 30 minutes or until partially set (the consistency of unbeaten egg whites).
3. Meanwhile, prepare topping mix according to package directions. Fold prepared topping, quince, sour cream, and walnuts into partially set gelatin mixture. Spoon over chilled cranberry sauce-gelatin layer in mold or dish. Cover and chill about 6 hours or until firm.
4. If using mold, unmold gelatin onto a serving platter.*** If desired, garnish with sugared cranberries and mint.
