I realize that I have developed quite a reputation for fluff recipes. I will admit that they are one of my VERY favorite desserts to make – so easy to prepare and everyone just loves them!
So far I’ve shared a Cherry Fluff, Pina Colada Fluff, and Pistachio Fluff. Today, I’m putting a holiday twist on fluff and sharing my delicious recipe for Cranberry Fluff! This dessert salad NEEDS to be on your holiday table this year.
There is so much to love about this salad that I hardly know where to begin. Like all my fluff salads, I start with Dole pineapples. Most of my recipes call for a 20 ounce can of crushed pineapple but I wanted to mix it up a bit for this recipe.
Literally.
I really wanted to use fresh cranberries in this recipe but realized that the overly-tart cranberries might be a little much. And then I realized that I could blend them with Dole pineapples to create a slightly sweet – slightly tart combo that would be PERFECT in this salad.
With the additions of marshmallows, coconut, and crunch pecans (optional!), this salad will shine at any celebration!
I rely on Dole products all year round but especially during the holidays. I keep the large cans of pineapple juice on hand at all times for quick punch recipes and cans (and cans!) of their delicious pineapple and other products in my pantry for recipes and snacks.
Nothing, and I mean nothing, beats sweet, juicy pineapple from Dole.
Top with some fresh cranberries and some fresh mint leaves and you quickly have a showstopping dessert on your hands. There is only about five minutes worth of work here and trust me, it’s five minutes very well spent. I’m hoping that this easy cranberry fluff will find its way onto your holiday table this year!
With Christmas and the New Year quickly approaching, I want to make a toast to YOU – my readers! Without you, I wouldn’t even have a blog, I wouldn’t be able to stay home with my boys and work in my PJs, and most of all, spend my days making delicious recipes that I get to share. So thank you, thank you, thank YOU!

I only have crushed pineapple and pineapple chunks, which would you suggest adding to the cranberries and which for the mix in? I was thinking I could cut the the chunks into tid bits and add the crushed to the cranberries.
