Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 4.6 ounces Cook and Serve Vanilla Pudding Mix
- 6 ounces Strawberry Jello Package
- 10 ounces Mini Marshmallows
Wet Ingredients
- 3 cups Water
- 16 ounces Cool Whip (thawed)
Fresh Ingredients
- 2 cups Strawberries (fresh, diced or sliced)
Instructions
- Prepare Base Mixture: In a medium saucepan, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix, strawberry jello mix, and water. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally to dissolve the powders completely and prevent burning.
- Chill Mixture: Remove the saucepan from heat and pour the hot mixture into a large mixing bowl. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming and refrigerate it for 4 to 6 hours or overnight until the mixture is fully chilled and set.
- Whip Pudding Base: Once chilled and firm, use a handheld electric mixer to beat the pudding and jello mixture until it becomes creamy and smooth, ensuring no lumps remain.
- Fold in Remaining Ingredients: Using a rubber spatula, gently fold in the thawed Cool Whip, mini marshmallows, and fresh strawberries. Mix carefully to combine without deflating the fluffiness of the dessert.
Notes
- For best texture, ensure the Cool Whip is fully thawed before folding in.
- Use fresh, ripe strawberries for optimal flavor and sweetness.
- You can substitute fresh strawberries with frozen ones, but be sure to thaw and drain them well before adding.
- This salad tastes best when served chilled; keep refrigerated until serving.
- For a more colorful salad, consider adding other fruits like blueberries or mandarin oranges.
