Okay, here is my post about making orange fluff with crushed pineapple:
So, the other day I got this craving for something sweet, but also kinda refreshing, you know? I remembered this orange fluff stuff my grandma used to make. It’s super easy and always hits the spot. I figured I’d give it a shot and share the process with y’all.
First, I grabbed all the ingredients. You’ll need:
- A big tub of Cool Whip
- A box of instant vanilla pudding mix
- One can of mandarin oranges, drained
- A can of crushed pineapple, also drained
- Some mini marshmallows
Now, you gotta make sure the oranges and pineapple are drained really well. Otherwise, the fluff gets all watery, and nobody wants that. I used a strainer and pressed down on the fruit with a spoon to get all the extra juice out.
Then, in a big bowl, I dumped in the Cool Whip and the pudding mix. I just used a spatula to mix it all up until it was nice and smooth. No need for a mixer or anything fancy.
Next, I folded in the mandarin oranges, crushed pineapple, and a handful of mini marshmallows. You just gently mix them in so you don’t crush the fruit too much.
Once everything was combined, I covered the bowl with some plastic wrap and popped it in the fridge. You gotta let it chill for at least an hour, but honestly, the longer the better. It lets all the flavors meld together, and the fluff gets a little firmer.
The Final Product
After a couple of hours, I took the fluff out of the fridge and dug in. Man, it was good! It was creamy, fruity, and just the right amount of sweet. My kids loved it, too. It’s a perfect dessert for a hot day or just when you need a little something sweet. Definitely give this one a try!
