A delightful and nostalgic fruit salad with a secret creamy pudding mix, bringing back sweet memories.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 (3 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream, whipped
  • 1 (15 ounce) can fruit cocktail, drained
  • 1 (15 ounce) can sliced peaches, drained and cut
  • 1 (10 ounce) package frozen unsweetened strawberries, thawed
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1 cup pecan halves

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and milk until smooth. Let it stand for 5 minutes to thicken.
  2. Gently fold in the whipped cream until just combined.
  3. Add the drained fruit cocktail, cut peaches, thawed strawberries, mini marshmallows, and pecan halves to the pudding mixture.
  4. Stir carefully to coat all the ingredients with the creamy pudding.
  5. Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.

Notes

  • For an extra creamy texture, you can use a full carton of whipped topping instead of whipping your own cream.
  • Feel free to substitute your favorite fruits or add others like grapes, mandarin oranges, or pineapple.
  • Ensure all fruit is well-drained to prevent the salad from becoming watery.
