Sweet 'n' Creamy Coleslaw image

My grandmother taught me how to make the dressing for this coleslaw when I was very young. It's not too tart and not too sweet. Sometimes I make 8 gallon jars a week at the restaurant where I work! It gets lots of compliments on my sweet coleslaw recipe. -Denise Elder, Hanover, Ontario

This coleslaw is delicious! The dressing is creamy and tangy, and the cabbage is nice and crunchy. I love that it's made with real mayonnaise, not Miracle Whip. It makes a big difference in the taste.
