Ingredients
Scale
Serves 6-8:
- For the fluff:
- 8 oz (227 g) cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup (100 g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 (8 oz / 227 g) container whipped topping (e.g., Cool Whip), thawed
- 1 (21 oz / 595 g) can cherry pie filling
- 2 cups (100 g) mini marshmallows
- 1/2 cup (50 g) graham cracker crumbs (optional, for a cheesecake-like crunch)
- Optional garnish:
- Additional whipped topping
- Fresh cherries or graham cracker crumbs
Instructions
- Prepare the cream cheese mixture:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes.
- Stir in the vanilla extract.
- Add the whipped topping:
- Gently fold in the whipped topping until fully combined.
- Incorporate the mix-ins:
- Add the cherry pie filling, mini marshmallows, and graham cracker crumbs (if using) to the bowl. Fold gently to avoid breaking the cherries.
- Chill:
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to let the flavors meld and the fluff set.
- Serve:
- Scoop the fluff into serving bowls or glasses. Garnish with additional whipped topping, fresh cherries, or graham cracker crumbs if desired.
Notes
- For a lighter version, use reduced-fat cream cheese and whipped topping.
- Swap cherry pie filling for other flavors, like blueberry or strawberry, for variety.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
