Instructions:
-
Prepare the Creamy Sauce:
- In a mixing bowl, combine the heavy cream and cream cheese until they form a smooth, sauce-like consistency. Ensure there are no lumps, as this will contribute to the creaminess of your fruit salad.
-
Blend the Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the prepared creamy sauce with the pineapple chunks, tropical fruit cocktail, coconut, and diced apple. The tropical fruit cocktail can be used instead of the regular fruit cocktail to enhance the exotic flavors of the salad. If desired, you can skip the lychees and use an extra can of tropical fruit cocktail.
-
Incorporate the Ingredients:
- Gently fold the fruits into the creamy sauce until they are evenly coated. Be careful not to mash the fruits, as you want to maintain their texture and integrity.
-
Chill Overnight:
- Once all the ingredients are combined, cover the bowl with plastic wrap or a lid and refrigerate the fruit salad overnight. Chilling it allows the flavors to meld together and enhances the creaminess of the sauce.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Before serving, give the fruit salad a gentle stir to redistribute the sauce. Scoop generous portions into individual serving bowls or glasses, and garnish with additional fruit if desired. This refreshing dessert is best enjoyed chilled, making it the perfect treat for hot summer days or as a sweet ending to any meal.
