Ingredients

  • 2 cups frozen sweetened strawberries, thawed and sliced
  • 2 1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Strawberry Mixture:
    Begin by placing the thawed and sliced strawberries into a large mixing bowl. Add the miniature marshmallows and chopped pecans to the bowl. Gently stir to combine, ensuring that the strawberries, marshmallows, and pecans are evenly distributed.

  2. Whip the Cream:
    In a separate mixing bowl, pour in the heavy cream and vanilla extract. Using an electric mixer, whip the cream on medium-high speed until it reaches soft peaks. This means that the cream should thicken and hold its shape when the beaters are lifted, but the peaks should still gently curl over.

  3. Combine Cream with Strawberry Mixture:
    Carefully fold the whipped cream into the strawberry mixture. Use a spatula to gently incorporate the cream without deflating it too much. Fold until the cream is well combined with the strawberries, marshmallows, and pecans, creating a light and fluffy texture.

  4. Chill and Serve:
    Spoon the mixture into individual dessert dishes or serving bowls. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to set slightly.
