Ingredients
Ingredients
- 1 box (3.4 oz) instant pistachio pudding mix
- 1 can (20 oz) crushed pineapple, with juice
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup whipped topping
- ½ cup chopped pistachios (optional)
Instructions
- Combine Pudding and Pineapple: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant pistachio pudding mix and the entire can of crushed pineapple, including the juice, until smooth and evenly combined.
- Add Marshmallows and Pistachios: Stir in the mini marshmallows and chopped pistachios gently to incorporate without deflating the mixture.
- Fold in Whipped Topping: Carefully fold the whipped topping into the mixture, blending until light and fluffy, ensuring the fluffiness is retained.
- Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the dessert to set and flavors to meld before serving.
Notes
- For best texture, use instant pistachio pudding mix, not cook-and-serve.
- Chilling longer than 1 hour will enhance the flavors and firmness.
- Optional chopped pistachios add a delightful crunch and nutty flavor.
- This dessert is best served cold and eaten within 2 days for optimal freshness.
- To accommodate dietary restrictions, use sugar-free pudding mix or whipped topping if desired.
