Ingredients
- 1 can (21 ounces / 540 ml) cherry pie filling
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 container (8 ounces) whipped topping, thawed
- 1 cup chopped walnuts
- 2 cups miniature marshmallows
- 1 can (20 ounces) crushed pineapple, drained
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract until smooth.
- Add the drained crushed pineapple and cherry pie filling, stirring gently to combine.
- Fold in the miniature marshmallows and chopped walnuts.
- Add the whipped topping and gently fold until the mixture is light, fluffy, and fully combined.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
- Serve chilled in dessert bowls or as a sweet side dish.
Notes
- Drain the pineapple well to avoid a watery salad.
- Cherry Salad tastes even better after chilling overnight.
- Pecans or almonds can be substituted for walnuts.
- Do not freeze, as the texture may change after thawing.
- Fresh whipped cream can be used instead of whipped topping, but the salad may soften more quickly.
