Fruit Mixture
- 1 can (21 ounces) cherry pie filling
- 1 can (20 ounces) crushed pineapple, drained
Pie Filling
- 1 can (14 ounces) sweetened condensed milk
- 8 ounces whipped topping, thawed
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
Pie Crust
- 1 9-inch graham cracker crust
- Combine Fruit Mixture: In a large bowl, stir together the cherry pie filling, drained crushed pineapple, and sweetened condensed milk until just combined, ensuring the ingredients are evenly mixed but not overly blended to retain texture.
- Fold in Whipped Topping and Marshmallows: Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping and mini marshmallows. Mix just enough so everything combines evenly and the filling becomes fluffy without deflating the whipped topping.
- Assemble the Pie: Spoon the prepared filling mixture into the 9-inch graham cracker crust. Spread it out evenly and smooth the top with a spatula for a neat finish.
- Chill the Pie: Cover the pie loosely with plastic wrap or foil and place it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours to allow the filling to firm up properly.
- Serve: Once chilled and firm, slice the pie and serve directly from the refrigerator. Enjoy this cool, fruity dessert as a refreshing treat.
Notes
- For best results, ensure the pineapple is well-drained to avoid a soggy crust.
- You can substitute whipped topping with homemade whipped cream for a fresher taste.
- Mini marshmallows add a fun texture, but you can reduce the amount if preferred.
- Keep the pie refrigerated until serving to maintain its creamy consistency.
- This pie is naturally gluten-free if you use a gluten-free graham cracker crust.
