Servings: 10 servings
Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 can crushed pineapple, drained with juice reserved 8 oz.
- 1 package lime dessert gelatin 3 oz.
- 3 tablespoons water
- 1 package cream cheese 8 oz.
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, combine the reserved pineapple juice, water, and lime Jello powder. Cook and stir over low heat until the gelatin is dissolved. Refrigerate the mixture until it is syrupy and just barely beginning to set, about 30 to 35 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until fluffy. Pour in the gelatin mixture and beat until just combined. Stir in the pineapple and marshmallows.
- In a separate medium bowl, beat the whipping cream with sugar until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream mixture into the gelatin-cream cheese mixture.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight), until set.
Notes
- When stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator, Lime Fluff Salad can stay fresh for up to 2-3 days. However, it's best enjoyed within the first day or two for optimal taste and texture.
- Lime Fluff Salad is not recommended for freezing, as the texture may change when thawed. It's best enjoyed fresh or refrigerated for a few days.
- Lime Fluff Salad can be served as both a side dish and a dessert. It's a versatile dish that complements various meals, from holiday feasts to summer barbecues.
