Instructions

Prepare the pudding mixture: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix, orange gelatin powder, and milk. Stir for about 2 minutes, or until the mixture thickens and is smooth.
Add sour cream: Gently fold in the sour cream until fully combined. The sour cream adds creaminess and a slight tang, making the fluff extra smooth.
Fold in whipped topping: Add the whipped topping (Cool Whip) to the mixture and gently fold it in until it’s completely incorporated. Be careful not to deflate the fluffiness of the whipped topping.
Add mix-ins (optional): If you’re using mini marshmallows or mandarin oranges, fold them in now. The marshmallows add a fun texture, while the mandarin oranges enhance the citrus flavor and add a juicy burst.
Chill the fluff: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the mixture for at least 2-3 hours, or until it’s fully chilled and set. The fluff will firm up a bit and become even more delicious as it chills.
Serve: After the fluff has chilled, serve it in individual bowls or as a big scoop in a serving dish. You can garnish with extra orange zest, mandarin oranges, or a sprinkle of grated coconut if desired.
