24 HOUR FRUIT SALAD



24 Hour Fruit Salad image

This is a wonderful salad that is easily adaptable, and can be served as a salad with a holiday meal or as a dessert. The original recipe called for canned fruit cocktail, but I have modified it from that. I'm also allergic to pineapple, so I either pick it out or substitute more of the other fruits instead. All the fruits are really to taste. I could eat myself sick on this stuff, it is so good.

Categories     Dessert

Time 15m

Yield 10-12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 cup whipping cream, whipped
1 (3 ounce) box instant vanilla pudding
1 3/4 cups milk
1 (8 ounce) can mandarin oranges, drained DRY (very important)
1 (20 ounce) can pineapple chunks, drained DRY
1 cup green grape, halved
1 cup red grapes, halved
1/2 cup maraschino cherry
1/2 cup marshmallows

Steps:

  • The canned fruit needs to be completely dry, so recommend starting this 2 days in advance - draining the fruit overnight on the first day.
  • On the day before you need the salad, whip the cream. You can sweeten it with a bit of sugar if desired, but it's not needed.
  • Mix the pudding mix and milk together until thick.
  • Fold the whipped cream and pudding together.
  • Fold the fruits and marshmallows into the cream and pudding mixture.
  • Refrigerate overnight.

FAMILY FAVORITE 24 HOUR FRUIT SALAD



Family Favorite 24 Hour Fruit Salad image

This old-fashioned fruit salad can be made any time of year. Cool, creamy, and fluffy, you'd never guess it's made with canned fruit. The combination of fruit gives it a tropical feel. Sweet and creamy, the homemade custard is the perfect base for this fruit salad. Marshmallows soak all the goodness from the custard sauce....

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 can(s) Dole pineapple chunks in 100% pineapple juice drain and reserve 4 tablespoons of syrup (20 oz)
6 slightly beaten egg yolks (remember to separate egg yolk from whites) beat yolks with a fork
4 Tbsp sugar
4 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 Tbsp butter or margarine (I always use Blue Bonnet margarine)
2 dash(es) salt
1 can(s) Delmonte 100% juice fruit cocktail, drained (15 oz)
1 can(s) Dole tropical mixed fruit in passion fruit, drained (15.25 oz)
4 c tiny marshmallows
2 c prepared Dream Whip topping (1 packet makes 2 cups see directions below)
INGREDIENTS FOR WHIPPED TOPPING
1 pkg Dream Whip
1/2 c cold milk
1/2 tsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • 1. Drain pineapple chunks in a colander over a small bowl and reserve 4 tablespoons of pineapple syrup.
  • 2. To make custard for fruit salad: In a small heavy saucepan, combine reserved pineapple syrup, egg yolks, sugar, vinegar, butter or margarine, and salt. *Note: as a rule, I used apple cider vinegar*
  • 3. Cook and stir over low heat, whisking or stirring constantly, for about 6 minutes or until the mixture thickens slightly and coats a metal spoon. It may take a little longer than 6 minutes, but when it coats the spoon it is ready. (Yes you will smell the vinegar, but don't worry, the custard will taste delicious). Cool to room temperature.
  • 4. In a 3 quart bowl, combine pineapple chunks, fruit cocktail, mixed fruit, and marshmallows.
  • 5. Pour custard over; mix fruit mixture gently. (I generally make this up in a glass rectangular baking pan.)
  • 6. In a large bowl, to make the whipped cream do the following: Mix 1 envelope of Dream Whip, 1/2 cup cold milk, and 1/2 teaspoon vanilla. Beat on low speed until blended. Then beat on high speed for 4 minutes until topping thickens and form peaks.
  • 7. Fold whipped cream into fruit mixture. Cover with some Saran Wrap and refrigerate 24 hours or overnight. Makes 10 to 12 servings.

24-HOUR SALAD WITH FRUIT AND CUSTARD RECIPE



24-Hour Salad With Fruit and Custard Recipe image

This rich and creamy fruit salad is made with a cooked custard and canned fruit, then chilled overnight for 24 hours.

Provided by Linda Larsen

Categories     Side Dish     Salad

Time P1DT35m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (20-ounce) can crushed pineapple
2 (15-ounce) cans mandarin oranges
3 eggs
2 tablespoons flour
3/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons lemon juice
1 cup miniature marshmallows
2 bananas (peeled and sliced)
3/4 cup heavy cream (whipped)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.

  • Combine the eggs, flour, sugar, and the juice mixture in a heavy saucepan and beat very well with a wire whisk . You want to beat enough that the mixture is foamy.
  • Cook the custard over medium heat, stirring it constantly with a wire whisk, until thick and boiling. You want to make sure that the mixture is thick enough so the salad will be thick.
  • Remove the saucepan from the heat, stir in the lemon juice with a wire whisk, cover, and chill the custard in the refrigerator until cold, about 4 to 5 hours.
  • When the custard is cold, fold in the well-drained fruits, marshmallows, and the sliced bananas.
  • Gently fold in the whipped cream.
  • Pour the salad into a serving bowl and cover. Chill for 24 hours.
