This ambrosia is really good. I added less coconuts (only 1 cup) and please do not put milk in this ambrosia. It's not necessary. You don't want it to be runny! I give this recipe 4 stars because of the milk, however, mine would get a 5!

This ambrosia is just like my mother used to make. I made it for Christmas day and I loved it!

Delicious. Although I don't use the milk. Instead I use some of the pineapple juice.

I altered this recipe. I used one cream cheese pack and 1/2 cup sour cream, used heavy whipping cream and the juices and blended. it was too liquidy with the "1/2" cup milk (which i used hwc) and it was simply too much of a measurement of liquid. The taste is great but i think i would have opted for less liquid and maybe actually would have used some of the frozen whip.

Very good but not quite "great." I would definitely add more mandarin oranges next time and use cream cheese to make it a bit creamer. Otherwise its a keeper!

Made this pretty much as stated except that we liked how it was tasting and looking so much that we added a little more of everything (without actually measuring). This was SO good! No one could stay out of it. We didn't add enough of anything to really drastically change this recipe so I would have to say to make it just as the recipe states. Very easy to make too. I'd never made it before and I love how simple this is! Just put everything in a big bowl and mix... doesn't get any easier than that!

I've been making this for years. Also tastes great with a container of pina colada or pineapple yogurt in place of the milk. Adds a bit of tangy smoothie flavor.
