Creamy Fruit Salad

This is a very nice, light salad that is good as a side dish or a dessert. 1- 11 oz can mandarin orange sections, drained 8 oz Cool Whip (I use fat-free) 2 cups coconut 1 - 8-1/4 oz can crushed pineapple IN HEAVY SYRUP*, drained 2 cups miniature marshmallows 1/2 cup milk Combine all ingredients and mix well. Chill at least one hour before serving. *Be sure to use the pineapple in heavy syrup, not in juice. The pineapple in juice is not sweet enough, and you will need to add about 1/4 cup sugar to sweeten it.
