Deluxe Cranberry Fluff
Jazz up your cranberry sauce this Thanksgiving with Deluxe Cranberry Fluff, a perfect harmony of whipped topping, homemade, orange-scented cranberry sauce, crunchy nuts, and juicy fruit!
Ingredients
For the Cranberry Sauce:
- 1 12-oz. package whole cranberries, fresh or frozen
- 1/2 cup orange juice
- 1 orange, zested
- 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
For the Fluff:
- 1 12-oz. container whipped topping, thawed
- 1 11-oz. can of mandarin oranges, drained
- 1 cup green grapes, halved
- 2 cups mini marshmallows
- 1/2 cup glazed pecans (plain toasted pecans work too!)
Instructions
- Begin by making the cranberry sauce.
- In a medium saucepan, add the whole cranberries, orange juice, orange zest, and brown sugar. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat and reduce to simmer, stirring frequently.
- Cook the sauce for 8-10 minutes until thickened and the berries have broken down.
- Once thick, remove from the heat and allow the sauce to cool completely.
- When cooled, add the sauce to a large bowl. Add the whipped topping, mandarin oranges, grapes, mini marshmallows, and pecans. Fold everything together to not deflate the whipped topping. The fluff should take on a beautiful pink color.
- Store in an airtight container in the fridge for at least 2-4 hours, or overnight.
- Serve chilled alongside your other Thanksgiving dishes.
