Ingredients

8 ounces cream cheese softened
½ cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
21 ounces cherry pie filling
2 cups heavy whipping cream
1 ½ cups miniature marshmallows
½ cup chopped pecans
Marachino cherries for garnish

Instructions

In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Beat until well combined and fluffy.
Gradually fold in the cherry pie filling until evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cherry and cream cheese mixture until no streaks remain. Be careful not to overmix to maintain the light and airy texture.
Add miniature marshmallows to the mixture and gently fold them in.
Transfer the cherry fluff mixture to a serving dish or individual dessert cups.
Cover the dish or cups with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or until the fluff is chilled and set.
Before serving, you can optionally garnish with maraschino cherries, a dollop of whipped cream, or some chopped nuts.
