Strawberry Fluff

This Strawberry Fluff can be a side dish or a dessert. It’s loaded with fresh strawberries, marshmallows and pecans. It’s easy to make and tastes great!

This Strawberry Fluff is a great side dish or dessert. Serve it either way or as a snack. Kind of like an Ambrosia, this is a fruit salad mixed with cool whip to hold it all together.

The main difference between a Fluff and an Ambrosia is that an Ambrosia uses coconut flakes, and a Fluff does not.

How to make Strawberry Fluff:

Making a Fluff is very easy. Start by making your Jell-O. Cut your strawberries into small bite size pieces.

Mix the vanilla pudding into the Jell-O and then mix your whipped topping with the Jell-O.

Add the other ingredients. Mix it all together and then chill in the refrigerator for a couple hours. Serve cold and enjoy!

Directions:

Step One – Place ½ cup of water into the fridge.

Step Two – Bring 1 cup of water to a boil to make your Jell-O.

Step Three – In a mixing bowl add Strawberry Jell-O powder then pour boiling water over and whisk until Jell-O is dissolved.

Then whisk in cold water to the Jell-O. Place in the fridge for 15 minutes.

Step Four – Remove the Jell-O from fridge. Your Jell-O should be slightly firm but not set yet.

Step Five – Next, whisk in instant vanilla pudding mix to Jell-O. Place back into the fridge for another 15 minutes. The Jell-O should be firm after this chill time.

Step Six – Once chilled, remove Jell-O from the fridge and fold in whipped topping.

Step Seven – Next add in the sliced strawberries, chopped pecans, and mini marshmallows to Jell-O and mix until combined.

Step Eight – Place back into the fridge to chill for 1-2 hours before serving.

How long can you keep Fluff?

Typically, this type of “salad” needs to be eaten pretty quickly. Ideally, you want to only keep this refrigerated for about 3 days. After 3 days, I would recommend discarding it.

• Tip – One way to help extend this salad is to make sure your strawberries are patted dry with paper towels to remove any excess liquid. You do not want to bring any excess liquid to this party!
