- 14 ounces Sweetened condensed milk
- 16 ounces All-purpose cream or heavy cream

- 1 cup Fresh or canned pineapple tidbits, drained (optional)
- 1 cup Fresh apples, diced (optional)
Instructions
1. Drain the canned fruit cocktail well and transfer it to a large mixing bowl. Ensure all excess liquid is removed to prevent the salad from becoming runny.

3. Pour the sweetened condensed milk and all-purpose cream over the fruits. Gently mix everything together until well combined, taking care not to break the fruit pieces.
4. Taste and adjust sweetness if needed. You can add more condensed milk for a sweeter salad or leave it as is.
5. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until chilled. For best results, chill overnight to allow the flavors to meld.
