Stir the boiling water and red hots together until candy is dissolved. Add the package of red jello and the applesauce. Put half this mixture in a bowl or mold, and refrigerate to set. Leave the rest of the mixture at room temperature. In a clean bowl, beat the cream cheese, mayonnaise, celery, and pecans until mixture is creamy. Spread over the set jello and pour the reserved jello on top. Refrigerate until set.
