My grandma always made cookie salad for us growing up, so this was like a trip down memory lane. I brought it to a cookout and it was by far the favorite item. People went crazy for it. I added about 16 oz. of whip cream instead of 12 oz. to make it just a bit lighter. Be sure to wait to chill the salad and then add the cookies until right before you serve it so they don't get mushy. Definitely use the entire bag of cookies and the buttermilk if you want this to taste amazing. It's more of a dessert than a salad.

I had a similar salad years ago using fudge striped cookies and was hoping this was the recipe, but I was disappointed. I thought there was too much pudding and that all the fruit and cookies ended up being drenched in pudding. The only changes I made were to use fresh pineapple and sugar-free instant pudding & fat-free cool whip and skim milk instead of buttermilk. I also only put in 1/4 package of cookies. It tasted good, but nothing special. I was looking for more of a fruit salad with a slight coating than this more soupy pudding salad. I'm thinking that 1 box of pudding would have achieved more of the result I was looking for.

I love this dish im like a little kid at Christmas when I make this and my husband goes to town on it We use crushed pineapple though and surprisingly it makes a big difference so try that if you like the recipe.

This is the BEST dessert!! It's so easy to make and absolutely delicious!! The ingrediants sounds funny together, but are great. I've tried to make a low-fat version, but it doesn't taste nearly as good. Make sure to get INSTANT pudding or it won't turn out right either. Make sure to buy the Keebler fudge stripe cookies, they're more crumbly and taste better.

Love, love, LOVE this recipe! It's definitely a classic in our area. I added canned blueberries this time and it was even better...almost tasted like blueberrie muffin mix. YUM! I did make it the night before and then added the cookies just before serving, but even the day after that, it was still good.

This makes such an easy and delicious salad! I like to add more fruit to make it more like a fruit salad. It's good even without the cookies. You can also experiment with different types of pudding. I've made this many times and it's always a big hit.

I found this recipe looking for something to use up some buttermilk. It is really good. To be honest, I was skeptical about the need for the fudge stripe cookies until I tasted it with and without the cookies. Definitely better with the cookie cruncha and that little bit of chocolate. I only had one large box of pudding, 5.1 ounces, so slightly less than the 6.8 ounces two small boxes would make. I kept the milk the same and it seemed to be fine. Also, I used crushed pineapple because that is what I had but I think the pineapple chunks would provide a better contrast in textures. I would make this recipe again. Thanks for sharing it.

I’ll admit I was a little skeptical about this recipe at first, but since it got such great reviews we thought we would give it a try. We followed the recipe exactly, except we used the full package of cookies. Took it to a BBQ, and the bowl was practically licked clean. We will definitely be making this again

Fantastic. I accidentally was short 4oz of cool whip and 6oz of mandarin oranges, but worked out great anyway.

Thank you for posting this recipe! I am in a new relationship and going to his brothers for Thanksgiving dinner. They had requested we bring the "cooking salad" they always bring. I had never made it so asked his daughter what the ingredients were so I could pick them up from the store. Then I was really confused as to how to make the salad. It's so nice to come to Allrecipes and know you can find anything you are looking for. I also added fruit cocktail as this is how his family makes it. Then added mini marshmellows for my own special twist.

This recipe was brought to work today for a pot luck and everyone raved about it. The cook used one box of vanilla pudding, 2%milk and "Ruffles" cookies. It was great!

A huge hit at all the family functions! My family prefers no fruit in it-just the sugary goodness! I use more crushed cookies and reserve several to garnish around the bowl. Simply FANTASTIC!!
