Ingredients:
- 1 cup milk
- 4 cups marshmallows
- 1 can crushed pineapple
- Whipped cream (optional)
Instructions:
-
Heat the Milk: Begin by pouring the milk into a medium saucepan. Place it over medium heat and allow it to warm up gently. ๐ฅ
-
Melt Marshmallows: Once the milk is warm, add the marshmallows to the saucepan. Stir continuously until the marshmallows are completely melted and blended into the milk, creating a smooth and creamy mixture. This step should take about 5-7 minutes, so be patient and keep stirring! ๐ฅ
-
Cool and Thicken: After the marshmallows have melted, remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly. You’ll notice that it starts to thicken as it cools. Keep an eye on it until it reaches a consistency where it can mound easily. This cooling process typically takes around 10 minutes. โ๏ธ
-
Add Pineapple: Once the mixture has cooled and thickened, it’s time to add the star ingredient โ crushed pineapple! Gently fold the pineapple into the marshmallow mixture until it’s evenly distributed. For an extra touch of sweetness and creaminess, you can also add a dollop of whipped cream at this stage. ๐
-
Chill in Fridge: Transfer the salad mixture to a serving dish and cover it with a lid or plastic wrap. Place it in the refrigerator to chill overnight or for at least a few hours. Allowing the salad to chill enhances the flavors and textures, making it even more delicious when served. ๐
-
Serve and Enjoy: The next day, take the salad out of the fridge and uncover it. Give it a gentle stir to fluff it up, then scoop it into bowls or onto plates. Tomorrow’s Salad is now ready to be enjoyed! ๐ฅ
-
Optional Garnish: For a decorative touch, you can garnish each serving with a sprinkle of shredded coconut or a few fresh mint leaves. This adds visual appeal and a hint of additional flavor to the dish. Feel free to get creative with your garnishes! ๐ฟ
