Ensure the crushed pineapple is thoroughly drained. Press out as much liquid as possible using a fine-mesh sieve or by squeezing it in cheesecloth. This is crucial for the fluff's consistency.
⏱️ 3 min - 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the well-drained crushed pineapple with the dry instant vanilla pudding mix. Stir until the pudding mix is fully incorporated and no dry spots remain.
⏱️ 2 min - 3
Gently fold in the thawed Cool Whip into the pineapple and pudding mixture. Use a spatula to carefully combine until no streaks of Cool Whip remain and the mixture is light and uniform. Be careful not to overmix, which can deflate the Cool Whip.
