Better Than Sex Fruit Salad – Page 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sliced strawberries, pineapple chunks, halved grapes, mandarin orange segments, mini marshmallows, shredded coconut, and chopped pecans. Gently toss the fruits and other ingredients together until evenly distributed.
In a separate medium-sized mixing bowl, prepare the creamy dressing by whisking together the whipped topping, instant vanilla pudding mix, and milk until smooth and creamy. The pudding mix will thicken the dressing and add a delightful vanilla flavor. Pour the creamy dressing over the fruit mixture in the large bowl.
Using a spatula or large spoon, gently fold the dressing into the fruit mixture until all the ingredients are well coated.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the Better Than Sex Fruit Salad for at least 1 hour, or until chilled and the flavors have melded together.
Before serving, give the fruit salad a final toss to ensure that the dressing is evenly distributed.
Garnish the fruit salad with maraschino cherries, if desired, for a pop of color and extra sweetness.
Serve the Better Than Sex Fruit Salad chilled, either as a refreshing dessert on its own or as a delightful accompaniment to a variety of meals.
