Step 3: Assemble the Fruit Salad
- Layer half of the prepared fruit in a large serving dish.
- Spread half of the creamy mixture over the fruit layer.
- Sprinkle half of the crushed graham crackers and nuts (if using) on top.
- Repeat the layers: fruit, creamy mixture, and the remaining graham crackers and nuts.
Step 4: Chill and Serve
- Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. This allows the flavors to meld and the graham crackers to soften slightly while retaining some crunch.
- For a visually appealing presentation, garnish with a few extra fresh fruit pieces on top before serving.
Tips for Perfection
- Fruit Variations: Feel free to experiment with mango, kiwi, or blueberries for a tropical twist.
- Nuts: Toasting the nuts lightly enhances their flavor.
- Make Ahead: This salad can be made the night before, making it perfect for parties.
- Dietary Adjustments: Substitute whipped topping with coconut whipped cream for a lighter, dairy-free version.
