Direction:

Fruit Preparation:

1. Start by cleaning all of the pineapple, grapes, and berries. Pat them dry gently.
2. Cut the pineapple into bite-sized pieces, quarter the strawberries, and cut the grapes in half.
3. To keep the banana from browning, cut it into slices and sprinkle them with lemon juice.

Preparing the Creamy Mixture:

1. Beat the cream cheese until it’s smooth in a big basin.
2. Condensed milk should be added gradually until the mixture is smooth and well-combined.
3. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream as you gently incorporate it into the cream cheese mixture.
4. Blending Fruits with Creamy Concoction:
5. To the cream mixture, add the small marshmallows and the prepared fruits.
6. To prevent breaking the fruit, gently fold everything together.

Freezing:

• Pour the batter into a mould or baking dish of your choosing.
• If you like stacked salads, layer the fruit first, then the cream, and so on.
• Place cling film over the top and freeze for a minimum of 4 hours, or until solid.

Serving Tip

• About 20 to 30 minutes before serving, take the frozen fruit salad out of the freezer.
• Scoop into dishes or cut into wedges.
• If preferred, garnish with a dusting of chopped nuts and fresh mint leaves.
