I first made this pistachio fluff for a last minute holiday potluck when my oven broke down. What started as a desperate solution has become my most requested dessert at family gatherings, with my nephews now insisting it’s not Christmas without the “green cloud pudding.”
Ingredients
Crushed pineapple with juice: Provides natural sweetness and moisture that activates the pudding mix. Look for pineapple packed in 100% juice rather than syrup for best flavor balance.
Instant pistachio pudding mix: Creates the signature pale green color and nutty undertone. Jell-O brand works consistently but store brands perform equally well.
Non-dairy whipped topping: Gives the fluff its cloud like texture. Allow it to thaw completely in the refrigerator for easier folding.
Mini marshmallows: Add delightful pockets of sweetness and that classic fluffy texture. Fresh marshmallows ensure the best texture.
Chopped pistachios: Provide wonderful crunch and enhance the pistachio flavor. Lightly salted pistachios create a satisfying sweet salty contrast.
