Gently fold the crushed cookies into the salad. Serve immediately to maintain the cookie's crispness. (2 minutes)
For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a splash of orange juice or a dash of vanilla extract to the pudding mixture.
To make parfaits, layer the cookie salad with additional whipped topping and crushed cookies in glasses or parfait dishes. Repeat the layers and top with a dollop of whipped topping and a sprinkle of cookie crumbs.
Ensure the pineapple chunks and mandarin oranges are well-drained to prevent the salad from becoming too watery.
Feel free to experiment with different types of cookies! Chocolate chip, shortbread, or even gingersnaps would be delicious alternatives.
