Ambrosia Salad Dip Food

AMBROSIA SALAD DIP

Steps:

• Start by placing your softened cream cheese, sour cream and powdered sugar in a bowl. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer and blend it up until creamy.
• Drain your pineapple and cherries and chop the cherries up a bit. Pour into the mixture and blend.
• Then you will add in your mandarin oranges, and mix gently so you don't break them apart too much.
• Add in the whipped cream and food color, and marshmallows. Fold it in until well mixed.
• Place ambrosia salad dip in the refrigerator for 30 minutes and then serve up this fruit dip with vanilla wafer, pretzels, graham crackers, fresh fruit, etc.
• I added a few spring sprinkles on top of the pineapple fruit dip but that is optional.

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 350 degrees F.
• Spread the pecans on a small baking sheet and bake, stirring once halfway through, until lightly browned and toasted, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer the pecans to a medium bowl and cool completely.
• Whip the heavy cream in a medium bowl with an electric mixer to stiff peaks. Stir in the sour cream by hand until combined. Stir in the marshmallows, pineapple and coconut. Gently fold in the mandarin oranges. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until chilled, at least 2 hours and up to overnight.
• Right before serving, roughly chop the pecans. Fold the pecans and maraschino cherries into the ambrosia salad. Transfer to a serving bowl and serve immediately.
