If you're looking for a light and refreshing treat that's full of fruity goodness, you'll love this orange fluff salad. It's a simple-to-make and delicious combination of juicy mandarin oranges, sweet whipped cream, and fluffy marshmallows you can whip up in no time. You might even have most of the ingredients on hand!
Orange fluff is a JELLO-O salad that's been around since the 1950s. There are a few different variations, but this one is my favorite.
When I think of this salad, I remember it being served at summer barbeques, church gatherings, and potlucks during my childhood.
Maybe it's stayed so popular because everyone seems to love it, and it makes the perfect dish for sharing-and it doesn't hurt that it only takes about five minutes to make
This recipe tastes best after being stored in the fridge for an hour or two. That gives it time for all the flavors to meld together.
The coconut in this orange fluff salad is optional. People seem to have strong feelings about coconut, so if you're not a fan, just leave it out.
We suggest making this orange fluff no more than a few hours in advance. The mandarin oranges tend to release moisture, and your salad may get a little soggy if left too long.
If you do need to make it further ahead of time or have leftovers, just give it a stir, and it will still taste fine.
Now, let's get into it!
Here's everything you need to make this orange fluff salad.
The first step is to mix the whipped cream and JELL-O together.
After the JELL-O powder and whipped cream are mixed together, add the rest of ingredients, and gently fold them in until everything's fully combined.
That's all there is to it! Serve immediately or refrigerate until you're ready to serve.
This scrumptious orange salad can be served as a side, and is ideal for casual get-togethers or potlucks. It's also a great dessert or light snack.
