This fluff salad is so perfect to take to picnics and BBQs. With just a few simple ingredients, and about 10 minutes of hands on time, you have a great dessert to pass. This fluff salad gets its inspiration from my delicious no bake Cherry Cheesecake!

Reader Review

Oh my I just made this.. AMAZING!! My whole family is enjoying it right now . . . thanks for the wonderful recipe!!

WHAT GOES INTO CHERRY CHEESECAKE FRUIT FLUFF?

  • Cream Cheese
  • Cheesecake Pudding Mix, though if you can’t find that just use vanilla.
  • Vanilla extract
  • Milk
  • Cool Whip, if you prefer not to use cool whip, you can use homemade cool whip, which is stabilized with gelatine.
  • Cherry Pie Filling
  • Mini Marshmallows

It’s so simple and so easy to throw together.

TIPS FOR THIS CHERRY CHEESECAKE FLUFF

Does it seem super ridiculous to give you tips for a simple recipe? Guys. We are all at different abilities. Don’t judge. Some of us can’t even ball a melon.

  1. Make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature. I like to a fill a small bowl with water, microwave it for 5 minutes, empty it, and then put that over the cream cheese that is still in the foil wrap but out of the cardboard box. Even right out of the refrigerator that brings it to room temperature in about 10 minutes.
  2. As mentioned above, I used cool whip, but you could certainly make homemade whipped cream and then stabilize it following this great recipe from Something Swanky.
  3. If you watch the video for this, you will see that I didn’t mix the cool whip in with the beater before adding the cherries and marshmallows. That was so I could get that pretty picture of all the ingredients in the bowl you see above. Don’t be like me, guys. Whip the cool whip in with the cream cheese and other liquid ingredients before adding the cherries and marshmallows.

      I haven’t tested this recipe without the cream cheese. I think you are going to find that it isn’t thick enough without it.

      I haven’t tested that, but I can’t think of a reason why that wouldn’t work.

      This is an older recipe that we don’t have nutritional information for, but I love using MyFitnessPal to calculate the nutrition of recipes that aren’t my own. It’s a free app and works great.
