Ingredients
– 8 ounces lite whipped topping
– 14 ounces fat-free sweetened condensed milk
– 21 ounces cherry pie filling
– 20 ounces crushed pineapple (well drained)
– 2 cups mini marshmallows
– 1 cup shredded coconut (either unsweetened or sweetened)
– 1/2 cup chopped pecans (optional)
Instructions
1-Gather and prepare all ingredients: Open cans, drain the pineapple thoroughly, and measure everything out.
2-In a big mixing bowl, blend the whipped topping with the sweetened condensed milk, then add the cherry pie filling and pineapple.
3-Fold in the marshmallows, coconut, and pecans gently to keep the mix light and fluffy.
4-Adjust for taste if needed, like adding a touch more sweetness, though it’s usually just right.
5-Refrigerate the whole thing for at least one hour to let the flavors meld and the texture set.
6-Serve it cold, perhaps in fun bowls, and watch it disappear at your next gathering.

🍒 Use well-drained crushed pineapple to avoid excess liquid in the dessert.
🥥 Unsweetened coconut reduces extra sugar, but sweetened coconut adds a touch of sweetness.
🌰 Pecans add a nice crunch, but the dessert is delicious even without them for a nut-free version.
