Ingredients:
2 cups of fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
1 cup of grapes, halved (red or green)
1 banana, sliced
1 cup of pineapple chunks (fresh or canned)
1 cup of whipped cream or whipped topping
1/2 cup of sour cream
1/4 cup of marshmallow cream or mini marshmallows
1 tablespoon of honey or maple syrup (optional, for added sweetness)
1 tablespoon of orange juice (for a zesty flavor)
1/2 cup of chopped nuts (optional for a crunchy texture)
Instructions:
Prepare the Fruits: Wash and prepare all the fresh fruits—strawberries, grapes, banana, and pineapple. Cut the fruits into bite-sized pieces, ensuring they’re easy to mix and scoop.
Mix the Dressing: In a large mixing bowl, combine the whipped cream, sour cream, and marshmallow cream. Stir gently until all ingredients are well incorporated. Add honey or maple syrup if you prefer extra sweetness, and mix in the orange juice for a light citrusy kick.
Combine the Fruit and Dressing: Add the prepared fruit to the creamy mixture. Stir gently to ensure that the fruit is coated evenly with the creamy dressing. If you’re using marshmallows or nuts, fold them in at this stage.
