Copycat KFC Cole Slaw

I love KFC Cole Slaw!  I hardly ever eat at KFC because we try not to eat out that often, but when I do, I always get the cole slaw & biscuit for the sides.  There is just something mouthwatering about that sweet, crunchy side dish that makes me scarf it down.  I love it!  This copycat version is fabulous!  The longer it sits, the better it gets, so make this ahead of time & give it time to marry in the fridge.  You are going to love it!
