This is awesome! I made with light Miracle Whip. Skipped the onion. I almost added more liquid as it seemed very light on dressing when I made it. Glad that I didn't, however, as it moistened up after sitting in the refrigerator for awhile. I also added some celery seed as we like that in our coleslaw. Will definately make this again. Thanks.

This is way too sweet, and not at all tangy.

Yummy! we were eating this right out of the bowl. The only thing that I did different was used bagged cole slaw. I am craving this right now!

I like my slaw more on the vinegar side then the sweet side so I reduced the sugar to 1/4 cup, doubled the vinegar and instead of milk, I used buttermilk. If you can, make this the day before you need it...it's worth the wait.

YES..YES..AND YES! The only reason I ever went to K.F.C. was for the slaw. It was gone so fast that next time I'm making double. Thanks

Wonderful. Most cole slaw recipes are over done with ingredients, this one is just easy and too good.

This is now the ONLY cole slaw dressing that I'll make. (We used to use Marzetti which everyone liked, but this is so easy and delicious.) The ingredients are always in our home, making it easy to whip it together. I made this 2 days ago and what was left over tastes even BETTER! Make it a day or 2 in advance and it only improves. AMAZING. Don't change a thing. Thanks for this recipe Cookingnut!
