With the holidays around the corner, it’s time to start thinking about your perfect holiday menu. And this Creamy Cherry Whip Salad recipe should be at the top of your menu.
From the turkey to all the fixings, plus amazing appetizers and desserts. It’s a lot to think about and prepare for.
Our cute friend Jeni from Bakerette.com has released her newest cookbook, Festive Feasts.
In this book, she outlines the perfect holiday menu with her tried-and-true family recipes. Each recipe has a fun memory attached, which makes the recipes even more special.
My favorite feature about this book is that every single recipe has a gorgeous picture. I love seeing what the recipe is going to look like (because let’s be honest, you want your holiday meals to be gorgeous).
This Creamy Cherry Whip Salad is the perfect side dish or even dessert. Jeni talks about how her mom made this salad every year and it was one of her favorite food memories.
You can easily prep this the day before your feast and have one less thing to worry about.

It is time to make the best creamy cherry whip salad, and here’s how:
In a large mixing bowl, beat together cream cheese and sweetened condensed milk until smooth and creamy.
Stir in cherry pie filling and crushed pineapple.
Fold in Cool Whip and 1/2 cup of chopped walnuts.
Pour into a 9 x 13 inch pan and refrigerate for 2 hours (or overnight) before serving.
Top with additional 1/2 cup chopped walnuts.
Then dish out the creamy cherry whip salad and serve.
How to make your own whipped cream:
I am all about easy and shortcuts when we make this creamy cherry whip salad recipe, but sometimes the real quality stuff tastes better, like homemade whipped cream.
Here is how you make it:
- In a chilled metal bowl (it doesn’t necessarily have to be metal, but I feel like it keeps it a little cooler) combine 2 cups of heavy whipping cream and two tablespoons of sugar.
- Using an electric mixer, (I used a hand mixer) combine the ingredients until fully incorporated, and the whipped topping forms peaks.
- Store in fridge until ready to serve, or use in recipe.
