Ingredients
  

1 pound fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

1 cup mini marshmallows

1 cup whipped topping (thawed)

1 cup sour cream

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 cup shortcake crumbles (store-bought or homemade)

1/4 cup powdered sugar (adjust to taste)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Strawberries: In a medium bowl, toss the sliced strawberries with 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar. Allow them to sit for about 15-20 minutes to release their juices, creating a natural syrup.

    Mix the Base: In a large mixing bowl, combine the whipped topping, sour cream, remaining powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Gently fold these ingredients together until fully combined and smooth.

      Combine Ingredients: Add the marshmallows and the syrupy strawberries (along with any juice) to the whipped topping mixture. Gently fold everything together to incorporate without deflating the whipped topping.

        Add Shortcake Crumbles: Gently fold in the shortcake crumbles, being careful not to break them down too much. This will add texture to your fluff salad.

          Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the salad for at least 1 hour. This allows the flavors to meld together and the salad to firm up a bit.

            Serve: Before serving, give the salad a gentle stir. Transfer to a serving bowl or individual cups. Garnish with fresh mint leaves, if desired, and a few extra strawberry slices for a vibrant touch.

              Enjoy: Serve chilled as a delightful dessert that combines the flavors of strawberry shortcake in a fluffy, creamy salad!
