Hi Kim! Cream cheese would certainly change the flavor and I’m not sure how well it would combine into the whipped cream mixture. It could end up deflating your whipped cream.

Sam,
I was wondering if I could use cream cheese instead of sour cream for the whipped cream?
Thoughts?

I just made this version with homemade whipped cream. So delicious. May add a few nut before I serve for dinner tomorrow.

In reply to Audrey Cortez.

Hi Audrey! It makes about 10 servings, but of course that depends how big you like a serving to be. You can never have enough if you ask me! 🙂

I can’t wait to make this nostalgic salad tomorrow for my brother’s birthday! It’s so difficult to find in delis nowadays. I’d like to make enough so that he has plenty for himself, as well as to share. I was wondering how much this makes? I think I’ll double the recipe just to be sure. Thank you so much for literally making my younger brother’s birthday so much sweeter!

Hi Mary! You do not want to add the liquid from the cherries. 🙂

Do I not drain the maraschino cherries? It does say to drain the mandarin oranges, but nothing about the cherries. I want to make sure. Looking forward to making this salad. TIA

Love the receipt but way too sweet. Next time I will cut the powdered sugar by at least half and maybe 2/3.

Sam, I had never had ambrosia, so like you I realized I had been missing out. I followed your recipe without changing a thing and it came out delicious! Brought some to my mom who has a picky palate and she loved it too!

In reply to Laura.

If you like the flavor combination that will work fine. You will want to use less though as lemon extract is much more potent than vanilla. 🙂

What about lemon extract instead of vanilla?

This is by far the best version of Ambrosia Salad I’ve had. I have made this twice since finding your website/blog and my fiancé is forever grateful. Not using pre-mixed fruit cocktail and making the homemade whipped cream makes all of the difference. This is now my go-to fruit salad for holidays – it’s so pretty too!!!

Sam,

Thanks for answering so quickly! I can’t wait to make this. I promise I’ll come back & let you know how it was – but I already know it’s going to be fabulous.

Hope
