1. Prepare the Base
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk until smooth and slightly thickened (about 1–2 minutes).
2. Add Pineapple
Gently fold in the well-drained crushed pineapple. Proper draining is essential to keep the fluff thick and creamy.
3. Fold in Creamy Ingredients
Add the cottage cheese and whipped topping. Fold gently until fully combined and fluffy.
4. Optional Add-Ins
If using, fold in mini marshmallows and shredded coconut for extra texture and sweetness.
5. Chill
Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving to allow flavors to blend and texture to set.
Tips for Best Results
Drain pineapple thoroughly to avoid excess liquid
Use full-fat cottage cheese for the creamiest texture
