Ingredients
8 oz cream cheese, softened
3.4 oz cheesecake-flavored instant pudding mix
1 tsp vanilla extract
¼ cup whole milk
8 oz frozen whipped topping, thawed
21 oz can cherry pie filling
10 oz mini marshmallows
Instructions
Make the Creamy Base:In a large bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, cheesecake pudding mix, vanilla extract, and whole milk. Use an electric mixer to beat until smooth and creamy.
Fold in Whipped Topping:Use a spatula to softly incorporate the whipped topping into the cream cheese base, maintaining its light, airy consistency.
Add the Cherries and Marshmallows:Carefully mix in the cherry pie filling and mini marshmallows, ensuring they’re well dispersed throughout the fluff. Be gentle as you mix—over-stirring can deflate the fluff’s signature airy texture.
Chill Before Serving:Spoon the fluff into a large bowl or portion it into individual dessert cups for easy serving. Chill covered for at least an hour so the ingredients can set and the flavors blend beautifully.
Notes
Let cream cheese come to room temperature for a smoother mixture.
For extra cherry flavor, reserve a spoonful of cherry filling for topping.
Great make-ahead dessert—flavor improves after chilling.
Customize with chopped nuts, shredded coconut, or chocolate chips.
