This ridiculously easy (no bake) Cherry Fluff Dessert Salad is just that…easy, quick, and the perfect complimenting side dish to any meal.
I don’t know about you, but I love a quick and easy recipe! Even more so when it doesn’t require me turning on the oven.
This cherry dessert requires minimal ingredients and can be whipped up in a matter of minutes. Seriously, like five minutes!
Most everyone loves a good “fluff” type salad. I’ve had different variations of fruit salads and trust me when I say, you’ll love this one!
It’s filled with cherry pie filling and crushed pineapple. Add to the mix, marshmallow creme, sweetened condensed milk, and whipped topping to give it that creamy texture. Then, to add a little texture and crunch, a good dose of chopped walnuts.
Like I said, its a great side dish but it’s also perfect for dessert, too!

What Else Can I Add to My Dessert Salad?
Try changing out the walnuts for chopped pecans or almonds. Or, you can even omit them if you don’t want them at all. You can also add in unsweetened shredded coconut and mini marshmallows.

Your Cherry Fluff Dessert Salad sounds absolutely delightful! I’m all for easy recipes that don’t require an oven, especially when they’re as creative as this.
I was wondering, with the rising cost of living and real estate prices, do you think recipes like this are a smart way to save on grocery bills without skimping on flavor? Any other cost-saving recipe ideas you’d recommend?
Thanks for sharing this gem, definitely eager to try it out as a dessert and a side dish!
Thank you, I really love this recipe too! I believe making dishes like this is the best way to save money. When you make things yourself your in control of the flavor. All of our recipes I recommend, we only post recipes that we here all love.
What size jar of marshmallow cream
Hello Judy,
I used the 7 oz. jar from Kraft.
Hope that helps 😉👍🏼
Hi Judy
We use a jar of marshmallow cream that was 7oz.

When I ate this ( and boy did I eat this!) I just loved biting into the cherries and the walnuts just pushed it over the top with their chewy goodness! Loved it!
It’s really a simple and delicious recipe. Glad to hear you loved this one! 😁👍🏼
Marcie what do you think I could substitute the condensed milk with? Hubby is diabetic
Hello Pam,
You know, that’s a good question. I haven’t tried this without sweetened condensed milk. Maybe coconut cream? But even then, it wouldn’t be sweet. The condensed milk thickens and sweetens at the same time. If you do find an alternative that is beneficial for you, please write back and let me know.😁👍🏼
My mom loved Cherry Fluff dessert but made it a little different. She made it with sour cream instead of marshmallow cream. This was one of her favorite desserts . She’s no longer alive but I love the dessert also so maybe I’ll have to try your version of the recipe.
