  • 2 packs all purpose cream chilled
  • 1 can condensed milk chilled
  • 1 cup cheese cut into small cubes

  • Transfer to a container and cover.
  • Chill in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight for best flavor.

Notes

  • Drain the fruit cocktail thoroughly so the salad won’t be watery.
  • Chill the cream and condensed milk before mixing for better consistency.
  • Small cheese cubes give a nice salty contrast to the sweetness.
  • The salad tastes best the next day when the flavors have fully blended.
