Step 2: Whip the Cream

If using heavy whipping cream, beat it with an electric hand mixer until light, fluffy, and soft peaks form.

If using whipped topping, simply measure and fold it gently into the mixture.

Either option works beautifully—the result will be silky and cloudlike.

Step 3: Combine Everything

Once the pudding-pineapple mixture has thickened, fold in the whipped cream.
Use slow, gentle strokes so the mixture stays airy and smooth.

Taste it:

• If you prefer it sweeter, add 1–2 tablespoons powdered sugar.
• For a tropical twist, stir in shredded coconut.
• For texture, toss in mini marshmallows or chopped nuts.

Mix just until everything is combined—don’t overmix.

Step 4: Chill Until Set

Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dessert for at least 1 hour.
Chilling helps the flavors blend and gives the dessert a firmer, mousse-like consistency.

You can also portion it into dessert cups before chilling for easier serving.
