Delicious Pineapple Fluff Delight (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 6.8 ounces vanilla instant pudding mix, 2 boxes

02 - 40 ounces crushed pineapple in juice, 2 cans, do not drain the juice

03 - 8 ounces Cool Whip

04 - 10 ounces mini marshmallows

05 - 1 ½ cups shredded coconut

06 - 1 cup chopped pecans

07 - ½ cup chopped pretzels, plus more for topping

01 - Combine the pudding mix with the crushed pineapple and its juice in a large mixing bowl until the mixture thickens and is free of clumps.

02 - Fold in the Cool Whip gently using a rubber spatula until fully combined, ensuring not to overmix.

03 - Gently mix in the mini marshmallows, shredded coconut, and chopped pecans into the pudding mixture.

04 - Refrigerate the mixture for 2-4 hours to allow the salad to set and the marshmallows to soften.

05 - When ready to serve, gently mix in chopped pretzels to maintain their crunch. Garnish with additional toppings if desired and serve chilled.

01 - Ensure the pineapple fluff chills for at least 2 hours for the best flavor, though overnight is recommended.

02 - Consider using homemade whipped cream as a substitute for Cool Whip to enhance the freshness of the dish.

03 - Fold the whipped cream gently into the pudding mix to maintain the airiness and light texture.
