Ingredients
Scale
1 (3.4 oz) package instant vanilla pudding mix
1/2 cup Fireball Cinnamon Whiskey
1/2 cup cold milk
1 (8 oz) tub whipped topping (Cool Whip), thawed
2 cups mini marshmallows
1 (20 oz) can crushed pineapple, drained
1 (21 oz) can cherry pie filling
1/2 cup chopped pecans or walnuts (optional)
Ground cinnamon (for garnish)
Instructions
Whisk pudding base: In a large bowl, whisk pudding mix, Fireball, and milk until thickened (about 2 minutes).
Fold in fluff: Gently fold in whipped topping until fully combined.
Add mix-ins: Stir in marshmallows, drained pineapple, cherry pie filling, and nuts (if using).
Chill: Cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to allow flavors to meld.
Serve: Dust with ground cinnamon before serving. Keep chilled until ready to eat.
Notes
For less alcohol flavor: Reduce Fireball to 1/4 cup and increase milk to 3/4 cup.
Make it kid-friendly: Omit whiskey and add 1 tsp cinnamon extract + 1/2 tsp vanilla extract.
Storage: Keeps covered in refrigerator for up to 3 days (texture softens over time).
Presentation: Serve in martini glasses for an elegant touch.
