Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 ounces orange-flavored gelatin mix
- 3.4 ounces instant vanilla pudding mix
- 15 ounces mandarin oranges (canned, drained)
- 20 ounces crushed pineapple (canned, drained)
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 8 ounces whipped topping (thawed)
- 2 cups boiling water
- 1 cup cold water
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, dissolve the orange-flavored gelatin mix in 2 cups of boiling water. Stir for about 2 minutes until completely dissolved.
Add 1 cup of cold water to the gelatin mixture and stir well.
Place the bowl in the refrigerator and chill for about 30-45 minutes, or until the gelatin is partially set (thickened but not completely firm).
Once the gelatin is partially set, whisk in the instant vanilla pudding mix until smooth and well incorporated.
Fold in the whipped topping gently, ensuring it is evenly mixed without deflating the fluffiness.
Add the drained mandarin oranges, drained crushed pineapple, and mini marshmallows to the mixture. Stir gently to combine.
Transfer the mixture into a serving dish or individual cups, cover, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until fully set.
Serve chilled and enjoy!
