Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 3 ripe peaches (peeled, pitted, and chopped)
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) sour cream
- 1/2 cup (120 ml) whipped cream (or whipped topping)
- 1/2 cup (60 g) chopped pecans (or your favorite nuts)
- 1/2 cup (50 g) mini marshmallows
Sweeteners and Flavorings:
- 1/4 cup (30 g) powdered sugar
- 1/4 cup (20 g) shredded coconut (optional)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Seasoning:
- 1 pinch of salt
Instructions
- Carefully select ripe, fragrant peaches and prepare them by removing the skin, extracting the pit, and cutting into delicate, uniform cubes, then transfer to a spacious mixing vessel.
- Craft a luxurious dressing by whisking together tangy sour cream, airy whipped cream, powdery confectioners’ sugar, aromatic vanilla essence, and a delicate touch of salt until achieving a silky, harmonious consistency.
- Tenderly incorporate the creamy dressing into the peach cubes, using a gentle folding technique to ensure each fruit piece is elegantly enrobed without losing its structural integrity.
- Introduce textural elements by carefully folding in miniature marshmallows, creating pockets of softness, then sprinkle in crunchy, toasted pecans and wispy shredded coconut, distributing them evenly throughout the mixture.
- Allow the salad to rest and mature in the refrigerator for a minimum of 60 minutes, enabling the flavors to intertwine and develop a more profound taste profile, creating a refreshing and decadent dessert experience.
- When ready to serve, retrieve the chilled salad and present it as a sophisticated summer treat, inviting guests to indulge in its creamy, fruity, and textural complexity.
Notes
- Choose ripe, fragrant peaches for the most intense flavor and sweetness in your salad.
- Chill ingredients beforehand to ensure a cool, refreshing dessert that’s perfect for hot summer days.
- Consider using Greek yogurt as a healthier alternative to sour cream for a protein-packed twist.
- Feel free to swap pecans with other nuts like almonds or walnuts for different texture and nutritional variety.
