Notes

My Top Tips
♡ Do not drain the crushed pineapple! This recipe needs both the fruit and the juice.
♡ Keep the fluff from becoming deflated by folding in the whipped topping and not stirring it in.
Make-Ahead & Storage
Make-Ahead: You can make this Cherry Pineapple Fluff early in the day and keep it in the refrigerator until it is time to serve it. Or, if you want to make it the day before, make it up to the point of folding in the mini marshmallows and chopped pecans, cover, and refrigerate it. One hour before you wish to serve it fold in the marshmallows and pecans. This keeps the marshmallows from becoming soggy and makes the dessert look fresh.
Storage: Leftovers will keep for up to 3 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Freezing: This dessert does not freeze well.
