Pina Colada Fluff Tips

Can you use homemade whipped cream instead of whipped topping to make pina colada fluff?

Yes, homemade whipped cream can generally be substituted in place of whipped topping. Check out more tips for replacing whipped topping in your recipes.

What can you use instead of rum or rum extract?

If you don't have rum extract, coconut, pineapple or citrus extract could be used too. Find them in the baking aisle of your local grocery or specialty food store and put them to use in any of these other rum extract recipes, too.

How far in advance can you make pina colada fluff?

If using prepared whipped topping, you can make the pina colada fluff a few days in advance. Just make sure you keep it in the fridge until it's time to serve. If using homemade whipped cream, be more cautious and make the fluff only a few hours in advance, or a day ahead at most. If you make it too far ahead, you may see the homemade whipped cream begin to deflate.

    Ingredients

    • 1/2 cup butter, cubed
    • 1/2 cup sugar
    • 1/2 cup molasses
    • 2 teaspoons white vinegar
    • 1 large egg, room temperature, lightly beaten
    • 3 cups all-purpose flour
    • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
    • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    • 1/4 teaspoon salt
    • ROYAL ICING:
    • 1-3/4 to 2 cups confectioners' sugar
    • 2 to 3 tablespoons warm water
    • 4-1/2 teaspoons meringue powder
    • Blue and violet paste food coloring
    • FONDANT:
    • 2 teaspoons water
    • 3-1/2 cups miniature marshmallows
    • 2 tablespoons shortening
    • 2 cups confectioners' sugar, sifted
    • Additional confectioners' sugar for dusting
    • Optional: Coarse sugar and luster dust

    Directions

    1. In a large saucepan, combine the butter, sugar, molasses and vinegar; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat; cool to lukewarm. Stir in egg. Combine the flour, baking soda, ginger, cinnamon and salt; stir into molasses mixture to form a soft dough.
    2. Divide dough into thirds. Shape each portion into a disk. Wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until easy to handle.
    3. On a lightly floured surface, roll dough to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut with a floured 5-in. snowflake cookie cutter. Place on greased baking sheets. Bake at 375° for 7-9 minutes or until edges are firm. Remove to wire racks; cool completely.
    4. For icing, in a large bowl, combine 1-3/4 cups confectioners' sugar, 2 tablespoons warm water and meringue powder; beat on low speed just until blended. Beat on high until stiff peaks form, 4-5 minutes, adding more confectioners' sugar or warm water as needed. Divide into thirds; tint 1 portion light blue, second portion light purple, and leave the third portion white. Keep unused icing covered at all times with a damp cloth. If necessary, beat again on high speed to restore texture.
    5. Using pastry bags and small round tips, ice cookies. Let stand at room temperature until icing is dry and firm, several hours. If desired, sprinkle with coarse sugar while icing is still wet. Store in an airtight container. Save remaining icing in an airtight container.
    6. For fondant, in a large microwave-safe bowl, combine water and marshmallows. Microwave on high for 30 seconds; stir. Microwave until completely melted and smooth, about 30 seconds longer; stir. Transfer to the bowl of a stand mixer. Add shortening, beat until melted. Add confectioners' sugar, beat until combined.
    7. Generously dust counter and hands with additional confectioners' sugar. Turn marshmallow mixture onto counter. Knead until fondant is smooth and pliable, but not sticky, dusting hands and counter again as needed, about 6 minutes.
    8. Roll fondant to 1/8-in. thickness. Cut with assorted snowflake-shaped cookie cutters. Adhere snowflakes to cookies with remaining icing. Let stand until set. If desired, brush with luster dust. Store in an airtight container.
