Salad Ingredients
Method
Salad Preparation
- 1
Prepare the Cranberries
Rinse the fresh cranberries thoroughly under cold water. Remove any stems or bad berries. In a medium saucepan, combine the cranberries and sugar, and cook over medium heat until the cranberries burst and the mixture thickens (approximately 10-15 minutes). Allow the mixture to cool completely.

Mix the Base
In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and sour cream until smooth and well combined.

Combine Ingredients
Once the cranberry mixture has cooled, fold it into the cream cheese and sour cream mixture. Gently add in the pineapple chunks, chopped celery, and chopped walnuts, mixing until evenly distributed.
- 4
Add Marshmallows
Fold in the mini marshmallows gently to avoid breaking them. Ensure they are evenly distributed throughout the salad.

Chill and Serve
Cover the salad with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld. Serve chilled as a refreshing side dish.
