Ingredients
  

2 cups fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced

1 cup pound cake, cut into small cubes (store-bought or homemade)

1 cup whipped topping (e.g., Cool Whip or homemade whipped cream)

1 cup vanilla yogurt

1/4 cup powdered sugar (adjust based on sweetness preference)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/2 cup mini marshmallows

1/4 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)

Fresh mint leaves for garnish (optional)

Instructions
 

Prepare the Strawberries: In a medium bowl, combine the sliced strawberries with a tablespoon of powdered sugar. Toss gently to coat and let sit for about 10-15 minutes to release their juices.

    Make the Fluff Mixture: In a large bowl, mix the whipped topping, vanilla yogurt, remaining powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until well combined. This creates a creamy, fluffy base.

      Combine Ingredients: Gently fold the cubed pound cake, mini marshmallows, and the sugared strawberries into the fluff mixture. If you're using nuts, add them in at this stage. Toss everything together lightly to avoid breaking down the cake too much.

        Chill: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the salad for about 1-2 hours. This allows the flavors to meld together and the salad to cool nicely.

          Serve: Once chilled, give the salad a gentle stir before serving. Spoon the Strawberry Shortcake Fluff Salad into individual dessert bowls or a large serving dish. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for an extra touch.

            Enjoy this delightful, light, and refreshing dessert that is perfect for picnics, barbecues, or any gathering!
