Ingredients

  • 3.4 oz sugar free pistachio pudding mix
  • 1 can crushed pineapple in juice (20 oz can) drained
  • ½ cup mini marshmallows
  • 8 oz sugar free cool whip (8oz)
  • ¼ cup shelled pistachios chopped
  • 4 tbsp water

Instructions

  • Drain the pineapple by placing a sieve over a bowl and tipping in the contents of the can. Set aside to drain whilst you do the next steps.
  • Empty the pudding mix into a large bowl.
  • Add approximately four tablespoons of water to the pudding mix and stir till you get a smooth paste. You want to add about the same amount of water to the pudding mix as you have drained from the crushed pineapple - it doesn't have to be exact!
  • Tip the drained crushed pineapple into this mixture and stir to combine.
  • Add most of the mini marshmallow and most of the chopped pistachio nuts and stir to combine. Keep some aside to decorate!
  • Gently fold in the thawed cool whip until the mixture is combined.
  • Place into one large glass serving bowl or divide into individual glasses if you prefer.
  • Sprinkle the remaining mini marshmallows and chopped pistachios on top for decoration.
