I have a similar recipe...we use 1 cup pecans. We whip tbe heavy cream to stiff peaks and then fold in the mini marshmallows and let it sit for at 2 hrs or overnight. Tip: if you freeze your cranberries before you mince them its much easier. When it comes time to mix the two mixtures together we lightly drain the pineapple and fold everything together. We usually get to this point the next morning. This is a special holiday dish, because that is the only time they have fresh cranberries in the store. My mother-in-law use to make this for my husband every holiday, its been 14 years and he has not missed a holiday without this salad.

I was going to post this exact recipe and was happy to see it was already here and so well reviewed. My grandma made this every Christmas and it was always a favorite, especially at the kids table!

Thanks for the fab recipe, Cato. I went to a church party and everyone raved about it! I didn't even have enough time to refridgerate, but it was still great :).

This was wonderful. I only used 1 1/2 cups of sugar and used light cool whip. Next time I think I will only use 1 cup of sugar. The kids only wanted to eat this at Thanksgiving dinner.

WOW delicious! This was a hit at Thanksgiving dinner! Great as a dessert also. Could not find black walnuts. I used chopped pecans. Thanks for the recipe H. Cato

The kids liked it because it tasted like candy even after cutting the sugar down to 1 cup. Maybe a half a cup of sugar or possibly no sugar next time. The marshmallows and pineapple sweeten it enough.

I made this for a quilting group potluck lunch today, and knew that my friends who love sweet salads would like it. My great surprise was that it was not overly sweet, and I thoroughly enjoyed it too! As one quilter said, "It was very refreshing." I even happened to have black walnuts in my freezer, but I imagine that any walnuts or pecans would be as good. I chopped the cranberries (refrigerator temperature) in the food processor. I put them all in at once, and whirred it. Perfect! Thanks a bunch for a new holiday salad!

Delish! I have made this recipe before and lost my copy - this was it! Super fruit salad that everyone always loves. The super tart cranberries mellow during resting time. I used my mini food processor and chopped the cranberries a small amount at a time - very easy.

This was surprisingly good! I served these with my Thanksgiving meal. I cheated and used cool whipped topping instead of whipping the heavy cream. Yummy!

Thanks, have been looking for this recipe. I however put in grapes too in mine, gives it a bit more crunch and I add pecans since I don't like walnuts. I too freeze my cranberries, makes them easier to mince, and the cool whip tastes the same. Have been searching for days. THANKS TONS!

This is a really OUTSTANDING cranberry salad, & that comes from someone who really, really loves cranberries! I'm not a big fan of marshmallows, but used them nonetheless, though I did cut back on the sugar by 1/2 cup. I was disappointed that there were no leftovers from a dinner party of 10, believe it or not! Great recipe ~ many thanks for sharing!

Served at Thanksgiving last year. Everyone loved it. Was requested to make it again. Cut back sugar to 1.5 cups and was still very sweet.
Thanks for a great recipe

Yummy, my hubsand thought it was a little sweet - used splenda instead of sugar. I loved it - really tasty and great alternative to the jello type salad. Thanks for sharing.....
