FRUIT AMBROSIA





2 c. heavy whipping cream


3/4 - 1 c. sugar


1 can fruit cocktail, drained (I like Triple Cherry)


1 can mandarin oranges, drained


1 tsp. vanilla extract


1/4 tsp. almond extract


3-4 handfuls miniature marshmellows


coconut (optional)


sliced bananas (optional)


Beat the cream to soft peaks; add sugar %26amp; extracts and beat to stiff peaks. Fold everything else into the cream.. Serve immediately... (chill leftovers)





I've already made it twice this week:) .... One daughter loves coconut in it; the other daughter doesn't like the coconut. I personally don't like the bananas, because they get brown too easily.....Does anyone know of the recipe for that common salad with fruit cocktail, whipped cream and marshmallows?
Ambrosia. Its kind of easy. Its a can of drained fruit cocktail, a can of crushed pineapple(drained), a bag of mini marshmallows. Now here's where your options come in. One of your local stores also adds a pint of sour cream and some sweetened coconut. Other recipes add cool whip. You mix it all together and let it sit in a covered bowl in the fridge overnight. Yum!
I make this but I have my own version





A few cans of drained mandrin oranges


Marschino cherries to taste


coconut


mini marshmellows


Cool whip to coat fruit





Yummmoooo!!!


and very sinful. I figure, why not put in just my favorites?
