How to Make Light Butterscotch Pineapple Mousse

  1. In a medium bowl, gently combine 1 (20 ounce) can crushed pineapple with its juice and 1 (3.4 ounce) package of instant butterscotch pudding mix. Whisk until completely smooth and pudding is fully incorporated.
  2. Gently fold in 8 ounces of thawed cool whip using a spatula or whisk, until the mixture is evenly combined and fluffy. Be careful not to overmix.
  3. Spoon the mousse into individual dessert dishes or glasses. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the mousse to set and chill before serving. Garnish with a pineapple wedge or a sprinkle of toasted coconut for an extra touch of elegance (optional).
