Instructions

Prepare the Fruit: Wash and chop the fruits as needed. Place them in a large mixing bowl.
Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk until smooth and creamy. Mix in the vanilla extract.
Fold in Whipped Topping: Gently fold the whipped topping into the cheesecake mixture until light and fluffy.
Combine: Pour the cheesecake mixture over the prepared fruit. Gently fold until all the fruit is evenly coated.
Chill: Refrigerate the salad for 2–3 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the mixture to firm up slightly.
Serve: Serve cold. Garnish with extra fruit or crushed graham crackers for a cheesecake-style finish, if desired.

Notes

Healthier Version: Swap in Greek yogurt or light cream cheese.

Add Crunch: Mix in coconut flakes, granola, or mini marshmallows.

Fruit Variations: Try adding mango, kiwi, raspberries, or pomegranate arils for a colorful twist.

Make-Ahead: Prepare the night before serving for even better flavor and ease.
