This fluffy cranberry salad is made with fresh cranberries, pineapple, marshmallows, apples and whipped cream. It's a sweet, tangy holiday side dish that's a favorite!
Optional: 1/2 cup chopped pecans, 1/2 cup shredded coconut
Instructions
Mince cranberries: Crush 3 cups fresh cranberries with 2/3 cup sugar in a food processor or blender. Scrape down the sides and blend a few more seconds. You want the cranberries to be cut into small pieces, but not liquid.
Chill. Move the cranberries to a large glass bowl. Mix in 20 can crushed pineapple. Then refrigerate for at least 1 hour, up to overnight.
Add cream. Drain any juices and then mix in 1 green apples and 2-3 cups marshmallows. Add the coconut and nuts if desired. Fold in 1-2 cups whipped cream.
Place salad in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes before serving. Add a few additional marshmallows on top if desired.
