As a kid growing up. This dessert was there for Thanksgiving, Christmas, baptisms,weddings,graduations and birthdays. My uncle called it the Relative Dessert. Because it was always there on special occasions. Btw. Great video.

I'm going to try this variation. We always called it christmas salad or 5 cup salad because it used 1 cup of each ingredient. The funny thing is, I never new it was called "ambrosia." 😊

I do mine differently. I use a couple of cans of fruit cocktail because it has all the fruit in it except Mandarin Oranges which makes it cheaper to buy if you are on a budget and easier. I then add a can of Mandarin, marshmallows, whip cream and some times coconut. It is an easy dessert and especially during the hot summer.

Do not make the green jello as normal. We just add the green powder straight from the package to the whip cream mix. Do it a little at a time and taste. It can get too green and too strong very quickly. And we top ours with crushed pecans and more coconut.

In the video you say one cup of whipped topping, but the printed version you wrote 2 cups. I am assuming it is 1 cup?

@inthekitchenwithmatt

9 ай бұрын

Actually no I didn't say 1 cup of whipped topping. I said "one full tub or one container" if you rewatch at 2:02 you will hear it. Which is about 2 cups if using measuring cups. I also said near the beginning the amounts don't matter, so if all you have is 1 cup, like half of a container left, or if you make homemade whipped cream and all you have is 1 cup then that is fine.
