Marshmallow And Fruit Salad - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 (28 oz.) chunk pineapple, drained (save a bit of juice)
1 lb. red grapes
1 (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
1 small can mandarin oranges, drained
chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
maraschino cherries (optional)
1 to 2 c. miniature marshmallows
1 to 2 c. halved strawberries

Preparation

Drain and cut pineapple or leave in chunks.
Cut grapes in half or can be left whole.
Mix softened cream cheese with 3 tablespoons of the pineapple juice.
I usually add a teaspoon of sugar.
Whip the whipping cream in another bowl, adding a teaspoon of sugar.
Mix cream cheese and whipping cream together carefully. Fold in all the fruit.
Can be served immediately, but letting it refrigerate a while or even overnight will blend the flavors a little bit.
