A quick and easy peppermint fluff dip - a delicious holiday dessert dip your guests will go crazy over

So what exactly is “fluff?” Fluff is a sweet dessert dip (often marshmallow based) — and everyone seems to have their own favorite combination!

While we usually go for whipped cream, chocolate cookies, vanilla pudding and marshmallows, I thought using vanilla cookies, marshmallows and peppermint cookies would be a fun holiday twist.

This recipe is for the true peppermint fan, so if you’re not sure, divide your dip in half and add half of the peppermint to one half of the dip and leave the other half plain. You can always sprinkle on additional peppermint candies afterwards if you’d like!

Ingredients for Peppermint Fluff

  • 1/2 cup crushed candy canes or peppermint candies
  • 1 pkg Vanilla instant pudding mix
  • 2 cups cold milk
  • 1 cup mini marshmallows

Tip: some people love marshmallow fluff or cool whip in their fluff recipes. We personally liked this consistency for the peppermint fluff, but those additional ingredients would be delicious if you wanted to add them in.
