Pineapple Orange Whip Dessert

Pineapple Orange Whip Dessert is one dreamy tropical-tasting dessert made with just three simple ingredients, including Cool Whip, Pineapple Orange Concentrate, and Marshmallows.

Is it breakfast, or is it dessert? In appearance, texture, and flavor, it could play both fields. A citrusy delight, Pineapple Orange Whip has an irresistibly creamy texture. It may look like yogurt, but it’s light and indulgent. Everything you want for dessert... and breakfast.

Pineapple Orange Whip

But you’re an adult and you do what you want. What you want is to make this dreamy three-ingredient Pineapple Orange Whip and eat it whenever you damn well please.

What is a Whip?

A Whip is a type of dessert whose base is Cool Whip. Melted marshmallows add a dreamy texture and pineapple orange juice from concentrate brings the flavor that ties the dessert together. I first came across a Whip Dessert recipe in an old church cookbook (from Minnesota). It looked easy and sounded delicious - correct on both fronts!

Pineapple Orange Whip with Crushed Graham Crackers

I don’t know if you knew this already, but marshmallows are magic. When melted, those puffy masterpieces transform into the lovely adhesive that binds the tart, tangy pineapple orange juice concentrate and the Cool Whip together. The resulting flavor is like a tropical orange creamsicle, with a beautifully smooth and creamy texture that feels light and refreshing.

How to Make Pineapple Orange Whip Dessert

To make this dreamy Pineapple Orange Whip Dessert you will need the following ingredients.

INGREDIENTS  

  • 1 teaspoon coconut oil
  • 25 large marshmallows or approximately ½ a 12 ounce bag
  • 1 8 ounce tub of Cool Whip
  • 6-7 ounces pineapple orange juice concentrate or approximately ½ a 12-ounce can

INSTRUCTIONS 

  1. Bring a 12 ounce can of pineapple-orange concentrate to room temperature.
  2. Heat a non-stick pot over medium-low heat. Add 1 teaspoon coconut oil and 25 large marshmallows. Stir frequently, until completely melted. This will take around 10 minutes or so. Be patient, as low and slow is the way to go here.
  3. Once the marshmallows are completely melted, add 6 (or 7) ounces of the room temperature pineapple orange juice concentrate. (Seven ounces will provide more tartness). If the marshmallows start getting stringy in appearance when you add the juice concentrate - don’t panic! Once the concentrate heats up both ingredients will combine smoothly.
  4. After the marshmallows and pineapple orange juice concentrate have completely combined, remove from heat and transfer to a lidded container. Let cool to room temperature.
  5. Once cooled, add in the Cool Whip, folding until completely combined. Refrigerate for at least 4-5 hours or overnight.
  6. Scoop and serve topped with graham crackers for a pleasing crunch.

STORAGE NOTES

Pineapple Orange Whip Dessert keeps in the refrigerator in a covered container for up to 5 days. This is a great make-ahead dessert.

Garnishes

Pineapple Orange Whip is divine as a stand-alone dish, but some crushed graham crackers add a delightful contrast. You could also dress it up with the addition of a few fresh berries, maybe some coconut flakes, or even crushed nuts. A complementary granola would also be nice for textural contrast.

Alternate Whip Dessert Ideas

The beauty of this dessert is that literally swapping out one ingredient - the frozen juice concentrate - creates a completely different tasting result! You don't have to use Pineapple Orange juice here, you could also try:

  • Orange
  • Cranberry (or one of its many variations like Cranberry Raspberry)
  • Strawberry
  • Lemonade or Limeaid
  • Passion fruit
  • Grape
  • Mixed berry
  • Fruit punch

If you find a really good one, please share! I got some experimenting to do with this Whip Dessert recipe :).
