Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups Mini marshmallows
- 1 cup Crushed pineapple (canned, drained)
- 1 cup Sweetened shredded coconut
- 1 cup Sour cream
- 1 cup Cool Whip (or whipped topping)
- 1 cup Maraschino cherries (halved, optional)
- 0.5 cup Chopped nuts (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the mini marshmallows, crushed pineapple, and shredded coconut. Mix well with a spatula to evenly distribute the ingredients.
Add the sour cream to the bowl and gently fold it into the marshmallow mixture until fully combined.
Fold in the Cool Whip (or whipped topping) until the mixture is light and fluffy.
If using maraschino cherries and/or chopped nuts, fold them in gently to avoid breaking them apart too much.
Transfer the mixture into a serving dish or individual cups. Smooth the top with a spatula.
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
Before serving, give the dessert a gentle stir and garnish with extra shredded coconut or cherries, if desired.
Serve chilled and enjoy this tropical and creamy treat!
