Got it! Here’s a simple and delicious Frozen Fruit Salad recipe that’s refreshing, easy, and perfect for a make-ahead dessert or snack.
Frozen Fruit Salad
Ingredients (serves 6–8):
- 2 cups frozen mixed berries (strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries)
- 1 cup frozen mango chunks
- 1 cup frozen pineapple chunks
- 1 cup grapes, halved (optional)
- 1 cup mini marshmallows (optional, for a classic creamy style)
- 1 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt
- 2–3 tbsp honey or maple syrup (adjust for sweetness)
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Optional: chopped nuts or shredded coconut for topping
Instructions:
- Thaw slightly: Let the frozen fruit sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes so it’s easier to mix but still cold.
- Mix creamy base: In a large bowl, combine sour cream (or yogurt), honey, and vanilla extract.
- Combine fruit and cream: Fold in the partially thawed frozen fruit until evenly coated. If using marshmallows, add them now.
- Freeze: Transfer to a freezer-safe container. Cover tightly and freeze for 2–4 hours, until firm but scoopable.
- Serve: Scoop into bowls and top with chopped nuts or shredded coconut if desired. Let sit 5 minutes at room temperature before serving for easier scooping.
💡 Tips & Variations:
- You can swap sour cream for whipped cream or a mix of cream cheese and whipped cream for a richer dessert.
- Citrus zest (like lime or orange) brightens the flavor.
- For an adult twist, add a splash of liqueur like Grand Marnier or a little rum.
If you want, I can also give a no-cream version that’s like a frozen sorbet-style fruit salad—super light and naturally sweet.
Do you want me to give that version too?
