Description

Indulge in a refreshing Frozen Fruit Salad, a perfect summer dessert. This easy, no-cook recipe combines sweet fruits, creamy yogurt, and marshmallows for a delightful treat. Ideal for hot days, it’s a quick, healthy option for picnics or as a delicious end to any meal.

Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients:

  • 4 cups of mixed frozen fruits (such as strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, pineapple chunks, and peaches)
  • 1 cup of mini marshmallows
  • 1 cup of whipped cream or whipped topping (like Cool Whip)
  • 1/2 cup of Greek yogurt (plain or flavored, like vanilla)
  • 1 tablespoon of honey (optional, for added sweetness)

Instructions

  1. Thaw the Frozen Fruits:
    • Place the mixed frozen fruits in a large bowl.
    • Let them sit at room temperature for about 15-20 minutes until they partially thaw. This makes them easier to mix.
  2. Prepare the Creamy Mixture:
    • In a separate bowl, combine the whipped cream or whipped topping with the Greek yogurt.
    • If you prefer a sweeter salad, add a tablespoon of honey and mix well.
  3. Combine Fruits and Cream:
    • Add the partially thawed fruits to the whipped cream and yogurt mixture.
    • Gently fold the fruits and cream together until they are evenly coated. Be careful not to overmix.
  4. Add Mini Marshmallows:
    • Fold in the mini marshmallows. They will add some extra sweetness and a delightful texture to the salad.
  5. Chill the Salad:
    • If the mixture seems too soft, you can place it in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes to firm up a bit before serving.
  6. Serve:
    • Once the frozen fruit salad is ready, serve it immediately, or for a firmer texture, transfer it to an airtight container and store it in the freezer for a few hours.
    • Garnish with additional fruits, chopped nuts, or a drizzle of honey before serving, if desired.
