Description

This light and fluffyย Pink Cherry Jell-O Fluffย is a sweet, creamy, and fruity dessert thatโ€™s perfect for potlucks, family gatherings, or just a fun treat. Itโ€™s made with cherry Jell-O, whipped topping, marshmallows, and fruit, creating a refreshing and nostalgic dish that everyone loves!


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 package (3 oz) cherry Jell-O
  • 1 cup boiling water
  • 1/2 cup cold water
  • 1 container (8 oz) Cool Whip, thawed
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows
  • 1 cup crushed pineapple, drained
  • 1 cup cottage cheese (optional, for extra creaminess)
  • 1 cup maraschino cherries, chopped (plus extra for garnish)

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, dissolve the cherry Jell-O inย boiling water. Stir until completely dissolved, then add theย cold waterย and mix well.
  2. Let the Jell-O mixture cool for aboutย 15-20 minutesย at room temperature, but do not let it fully set.
  3. Fold in theย Cool Whipย until fully combined, creating a fluffy texture.
  4. Gently stir in theย mini marshmallows, crushed pineapple, cottage cheese (if using), and chopped maraschino cherries.
  5. Cover and refrigerate for at leastย 2 hoursย (or until set).
  6. Stir before serving and garnish withย extra cherries or whipped cream, if desired.

Notes

  • You can substituteย strawberry or raspberry Jell-Oย for a different fruity twist.
  • If you prefer aย smoother texture, you can blend the cottage cheese before adding it.
  • For extra crunch, mix inย chopped pecans or walnuts.
  • This can be made a day ahead โ€“ it actually tastes better after chilling overnight!
