Ingredients
- 2 cups fresh raspberries
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 3.4 oz vanilla instant pudding mix
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1 cup milk
- 2 tbsp powdered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 4 leaves fresh mint leaves (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the vanilla instant pudding mix and cold milk. Whisk together for about 2 minutes until the mixture starts to thicken. Set aside.
Step 2
In a separate large bowl, pour the heavy whipping cream. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract. Using an electric hand mixer or a whisk, whip the cream until it forms soft peaks. This will take about 3-4 minutes. Be careful not to overwhip.
Step 3
Gently fold the whipped cream into the pudding mixture using a spatula, taking care not to deflate the cream. Mix until well combined and smooth.
Step 4
Add the mini marshmallows to the creamy mixture, stirring gently to ensure they are evenly distributed.
Step 5
Finally, carefully fold in the fresh raspberries to avoid crushing them. Stir just enough to incorporate them throughout the salad.
Step 6
Transfer the Raspberry and Cream Salad to a serving bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the flavors to meld and the salad to chill.
Step 7
Before serving, garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and aroma, if desired.
