Creamy Ambrosia Pie

If you’re not familiar with Ambrosia Salad, it’s a longtime southern favorite made from whipped cream, pineapple, oranges, and coconut. Usually nuts and cherries too.

Using a premade graham cracker crust really makes this creamy Ambrosia Pie a cinch to make. Look for a large one. This recipe makes lots of filling!

The creamy and dreamy filling is loaded with mandarin oranges, crushed pineapple, marshmallows, coconut, and maraschino cherries.

No-Bake Ambrosia Pie

There are a number of ingredients to mix together for the filling, but it goes really fast. A block of cream cheese, a can of sweetened condensed milk, a small carton of sour cream, and a box of cheesecake instant pudding mix, plus a little lemon juice form the base of the filling. Then all the goodness gets folded in and the filling goes into the graham cracker crust. This no-bake Ambrosia Pie needs to chill for a few hours and then it is ready to be devoured.
