Better Than Sex Fruit Salad!!!

Step 3: Mix in the Dry Pudding

Sprinkle the dry instant vanilla pudding mix over the fruit and cherry mixture. Don’t add milk—just the powder! It will naturally thicken when combined with the fruit juices and cherry filling. Stir slowly and watch as the mixture starts to take on a rich, creamy consistency.

Step 4: Fold in the Whipped Topping

Now comes the magic moment—add your whipped topping! Gently fold it into the bowl until it’s fully blended and no streaks remain. The mixture should be light, airy, and deliciously creamy, almost like a fruit-infused mousse.

Step 5: Add Texture and Crunch

Sprinkle in the shredded coconut and chopped nuts, then fold them in carefully. The coconut gives a tropical sweetness, while the nuts add a perfect crunch that contrasts the creamy texture beautifully.

Step 6: Chill Before Serving

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 to 2 hours. This allows all the flavors to blend and the pudding to set properly, resulting in a rich and luxurious texture.

When ready to serve, give it a gentle stir and garnish with extra cherries, coconut flakes, or a sprinkle of nuts for presentation.

🍒 Serving Suggestions

• Serve it chilled in parfait glasses for a fancy dessert presentation.
• Pair it with angel food cake, pound cake, or shortbread cookies for an extra treat.
• Perfect for summer picnics, potlucks, family gatherings, or even as a sweet brunch side!

💡 Pro Tips for the Perfect Salad

• Use firm fruits: Softer fruits like overripe bananas can break apart easily.
• Customize it: You can add diced peaches, grapes, or even mini marshmallows for fun variations.
• Go sugar-free: Use sugar-free pudding and light whipped topping if you prefer a lighter version.
• Make ahead: This salad tastes even better after chilling overnight, as the flavors fully develop.
