Ah, yes! Pineapple Fluff is a classic, sweet, creamy dessert that’s light, fluffy, and perfect for potlucks or holiday tables. 🍍✨ Think of it as a tropical, marshmallow-y cloud that everyone loves.
Pineapple Fluff Recipe
Serves 6–8
Ingredients
- 1 can (20 oz) crushed pineapple, drained
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup sweetened shredded coconut (optional)
- 1 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
- 1 container (8 oz) whipped topping (like Cool Whip), thawed
- 1 box (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 cup milk
Instructions
- Prepare the pudding:
- In a medium bowl, whisk together pudding mix and milk until thickened.
- Combine the ingredients:
- In a large bowl, mix together the drained pineapple, mini marshmallows, coconut, and nuts (if using).
- Fold in the prepared pudding and whipped topping until everything is evenly combined.
- Chill:
- Cover and refrigerate at least 2–3 hours to let flavors meld and the fluff set.
- Serve:
- Spoon into a serving bowl or individual cups.
- Optional garnish: sprinkle extra coconut, chopped nuts, or a few pineapple chunks on top.
âś… Pro tips:
- For a tangy twist, add a small container of crushed mandarin oranges or a splash of pineapple juice.
- Can be made a day ahead—flavors actually improve after sitting overnight.
- For a lighter version, swap whipped topping for Greek yogurt or use sugar-free pudding mix.
If you want, I can give a “loaded pineapple fluff deluxe” version with extra layers like crushed cookies, cream cheese, and cherries—basically dessert heaven in one bowl.
