Ingredients
- 1 (8 oz) tub whipped topping, thawed (Cool Whip or homemade)
- 1 (3.4 oz) box strawberry-flavored instant pudding mix
- 1 cup cold milk (for pudding mix)
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup diced fresh strawberries
- 1/2 cup chocolate chunks or chocolate chips
- 1/2 cup heart-shaped candies (optional, for extra Valentine’s Day charm)
Instructions
Step 1: Make the Strawberry Pudding
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the strawberry pudding mix and cold milk.
- Continue whisking for about 2 minutes, until the mixture thickens.
- Let the pudding set for 5 minutes to fully firm up.
Step 2: Fold in the Goodies
- Gently fold in the whipped topping into the pudding mixture until fully combined and fluffy.
- Stir in the mini marshmallows, diced strawberries, and chocolate chunks.
Step 3: Chill & Serve
- Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours. This allows the flavors to blend and the fluff to set properly.
- Before serving, sprinkle with heart-shaped candies for a festive Valentine’s Day touch.
Step 4: Enjoy!
- Serve the fluff in cute dessert cups or scoop into bowls.
- Top with extra chocolate chips or a drizzle of melted chocolate for added sweetness.
- Pair with graham crackers, vanilla wafers, or fresh fruit for dipping.
Tips for Success
- Want More Chocolate? Add 1/2 cup white chocolate chips or drizzle melted chocolate on top for extra chocolatey goodness.
