If I know we’ll have leftovers, I will hold out the cookies and add the to individual servings so that they don’t get soft.
Be sure to use store-bought whipped topping/cool whip. Homemade whipped cream doesn’t stay firmly whipped as long as store-bought does.
Fully drain each can of fruit so there isn’t any liquid. If you have lingering liquid then the cream mixture will be more liquidy than fluffy. Can also use fresh pineapple and mandarins if you’d like.
Variations:
Make a cookie salad parfait: using individual cups, put some of the cream mixture at the bottom, add a few cookie chunks, a dollop of whipped cream and repeat until the cup is full. Top with a cookie and serve as individual parfaits.
Turn this into a cookie salad trifle: In a trifle dish, layer cream mixture, cookie chunks, whipped topping, and repeat until the trifle dish is full. For added flair, you can put full cookies outward facing on the edge of the trifle dish for a cookie-exposed look.
Turn it into a pie: Make my homemade graham cracker crust, fill the crust with the cookie salad and store in the fridge to chill.
