Ingredients

  • 2 cups whipped topping, thawed
  • 1 cup banana, sliced
  • 1 cup strawberries, diced
  • 1 cup crushed pineapple, well drained
  • 1/2 cup chocolate syrup
  • 1/2 cup chopped nuts (pecans, walnuts, or peanuts)
  • Extra whipped topping for garnish
  • Maraschino cherries for garnish

Instructions

  • Combine the sliced bananas, diced strawberries, and crushed pineapple in a large bowl. Mix gently to preserve texture.
  • Fold in the thawed whipped topping using a spatula until evenly incorporated.
  • Drizzle chocolate syrup over the mixture and fold gently to create marbled patterns without full blending.
  • Add most of the chopped nuts, reserving a small amount for garnish. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
  • Serve chilled, topping with remaining nuts, additional whipped topping, and maraschino cherries.

Notes

Use ripe but firm fruit to avoid excess moisture.
Thoroughly drain pineapple to maintain fluffiness.
Chill for 2 hours, minimum, for optimal texture.
Store in the fridge for up to 48 hours if tightly covered.
