Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh strawberries
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 4 ounces cream cheese (softened)
- 1 cup crushed pineapple (drained)
Directions
Step 1
Wash and hull the strawberries, then dice them into small pieces. Set them aside to drain any excess liquid.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the cream cheese until smooth and fluffy, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 3
Add the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract to the bowl with the cream cheese. Beat on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 4
Gently fold in the mini marshmallows and drained crushed pineapple using a spatula until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Step 5
Finally, fold in the diced strawberries, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix to avoid breaking down the strawberries.
Step 6
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or transfer the mixture to a serving dish and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 7
Serve cold and enjoy this fluffy, fruity salad as a light dessert or a side dish!
