Notes
To make Kraft's version of Watergate Salad remove the coconut from ours and add in 1/2 cup chopped pecans.
We used non-fat Cool Whip but you can easily substitute with the full-fat version if preferred.
If you prefer to make your own, we have a recipe for stabilized whipped cream that you can use to replace the Cool Whip. Do not use regular homemade whipped topping, it needs to be stabilized.
