How to Make Marinated Fruit With Coconut Dressing
- **Prepare the Fruit:** Gently place the prepared fruit (see ingredient list for details) into a large bowl or resealable zip-top bag.
- **Make the Marinade:** In a small bowl, whisk together the marinade ingredients (see ingredient list) until well combined. Pour gently over the fruit.
- **Marinate:** Cover the bowl or seal the bag and refrigerate for 1-3 hours, allowing the flavors to meld.
- **Prepare the Coconut Dressing:** In a medium bowl, using an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese until light and fluffy.
- **Combine Dressing Ingredients:** Gradually beat in the remaining dressing ingredients (see ingredient list), mixing until smooth and creamy.
- **Chill the Dressing:** Cover the bowl and refrigerate for 1-3 hours to allow the flavors to develop.
- **Fruit Salad Assembly:** Drain the marinated fruit. Gently toss the fruit with the chilled coconut dressing and serve immediately.
- **Kabob Assembly (Optional):** Drain the marinated fruit. Thread fruit onto 20 wooden skewers, alternating fruit types for visual appeal.
- **Grill the Kabobs (Optional):** Preheat grill to medium heat. Place skewers on the grill and cook for a few minutes per side, turning halfway through, until heated through and slightly caramelized. Brush with extra dressing during the last minute of grilling if desired.
- **Serve:** Serve the fruit salad or kabobs immediately, garnished as desired (optional: toasted coconut flakes, fresh mint).
