Ingredients
Scale
Fruit and Base
- 4 cups diced apples (about 4 medium apples; Granny Smith or Honeycrisp work well)
Sweeteners and Toppings
- 1 cup caramel sauce (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- 1 cup whipped topping (such as Cool Whip)
- 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
Optional Additions
- 1/2 cup chopped nuts (such as pecans or walnuts, optional)
- Additional caramel sauce (for drizzling, optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the Apples: Wash and dice the apples into bite-sized pieces. You may leave the skin on to add texture and extra nutrients.
- Mix Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced apples, caramel sauce, mini marshmallows, whipped topping, and cinnamon (if using). Gently fold the ingredients together until everything is evenly coated with caramel and whipped topping.
- Add Nuts: If using, fold the chopped nuts into the mixture to add crunch and enhance flavor.
- Serve: You can serve the fluff immediately or chill it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld. Before serving, drizzle additional caramel sauce on top for extra sweetness and garnish.
Notes
- Use tart apple varieties like Granny Smith for a nice balance against the sweetness.
- Chilling the fluff helps the flavors blend and the marshmallows soften slightly.
- For a nut-free version, simply omit the chopped nuts.
- This dessert is best served within a day to maintain apple crispness.
- Homemade caramel sauce can be used for a richer taste.
