Ingredients
- 12 ounces fresh cranberries
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 cup red seedless grapes, halved
- 1 cup pineapple tidbits, drained
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup chopped pecans
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the fresh cranberries thoroughly under cold water and drain.
Step 2
Pulse the cranberries in a food processor until they are coarsely chopped. Avoid over-processing to prevent turning them into a puree.
Step 3
Transfer the chopped cranberries to a mixing bowl and sprinkle with granulated sugar. Stir well to coat all the cranberries, then cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour, allowing the sugar to macerate the cranberries.
Step 4
After 1 hour, drain any excess liquid from the cranberries. Return them to the mixing bowl.
Step 5
Add the red seedless grapes, pineapple tidbits, mini marshmallows, and chopped pecans to the bowl with the cranberries. Gently toss to combine.
Step 6
In a separate mixing bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream with an electric mixer on medium-high speed until soft peaks form.
Step 7
Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the whipped cream. Continue beating until stiff peaks form.
Step 8
Fold the whipped cream mixture into the cranberry and fruit mixture until everything is evenly coated.
Step 9
Cover the cranberry salad and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours before serving to allow the flavors to meld.
Step 10
Serve cold as a refreshing side dish or dessert. Enjoy your Cranberry Salad Supreme!
