Hawaiian Pineapple Coconut Fluff: A Taste of Paradise

This no-bake dessert is a perfect way to bring the sunshine and flavors of Hawaii to your table. It’s light, creamy, and bursting with pineapple, coconut, and sweet surprise ingredients.

Ingredients:

IngredientQuantity
Macadamia Nuts, Toasted and Chopped½ cup
Coconut Cream Instant Pudding Mix2 (3.4 oz) packages
Crushed Pineapple with Juices1 (20 oz) can
Crushed Pineapple with Juices1 (8 oz) can
Sweetened Condensed Milk1 (14 oz) can
Maraschino Cherries, Drained1 (16 oz) jar
Mini Marshmallows3 cups
Frozen Whipped Topping, Thawed1 (16 oz) container
Whipped Cream, Cherries, and Nuts (optional, for garnish)To taste

Instructions:

  1. Setting the Tropical Stage:

    • In a large mixing bowl, combine the coconut cream instant pudding mix with both cans of crushed pineapple, including all the juices. Stir well until the pudding mix dissolves completely, and you have a smooth and well-combined pineapple pudding base.
  2. Sweetness and Creaminess:

    • Pour in the sweetened condensed milk and continue stirring until everything is well incorporated. This adds sweetness and creaminess to the fluff.
  3. Adding the Fun Stuff:

    • Gently fold in the drained maraschino cherries and the toasted macadamia nuts. Use a spatula to incorporate them evenly without deflating the mixture.

    • Optional Flavor Twists:

      • You can substitute chopped dried mango, papaya, or even diced peaches for some of the pineapple or cherries for a different tropical twist.
      • For a bit of citrusy tang, add a splash of fresh lime or orange juice.
  4. Marshmallow Magic:

    • Gently fold in the mini marshmallows. They add a delightful textural contrast and sweetness to the fluff.
  5. Whipped Topping Delight:

    • Lastly, fold in the thawed whipped topping until everything is evenly distributed. Be careful not to overmix, as you want to keep the fluff light and airy.
  6. Chilling for Perfection:

    • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the Hawaiian Pineapple Coconut Fluff for at least 2 hours, or until the mixture is well chilled and set. This allows the flavors to meld and the pudding to firm up.
  7. Tropical Presentation (Optional):

    • Before serving, you can garnish the fluff with additional whipped cream, maraschino cherries, and toasted macadamia nuts for a more visually appealing presentation.
  8. Serve and Enjoy!

    • Serve the Hawaiian Pineapple Coconut Fluff cold and enjoy the delicious and refreshing taste of the tropics
