- Make the Creamy Base:
- In a large bowl stir together the Cool Whip sweetened condensed milk and sour cream until the mixture is smooth and no streaks remain This forms the sweet and fluffy foundation that coats every bit of fruit
- Combine the Fruits:
- Gently fold in the drained fruit cocktail crushed pineapple cherry pie filling and sliced bananas to the creamy mixture Use a broad spatula and turn mixture from the bottom up to avoid bruising the fruit Every piece should be evenly coated
- Add Fresh Fruits if Using:
- If you are adding strawberries blueberries or kiwis fold them in gently taking care not to mash the berries or break the fruit Salad should look bright with colors evenly distributed
- Chill the Salad:
- Cover the bowl tightly with plastic wrap or a lid Place in the fridge for at least four hours and up to overnight so flavors mingle and the salad becomes cool and luscious
- Serve and Enjoy:
- Serve generous scoops of the chilled salad in pretty glasses or bowls and enjoy the creamy fruity goodness with every spoonful
