Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese using an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth and fluffy.
  2. Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract to the cream cheese. Mix on low speed until fully incorporated.
  3. Gently fold in whipped topping with a spatula, maintaining a light and airy consistency.
  4. Rinse all fresh fruits and pat them dry. This will prevent a watery salad.
  5. Hull and halve strawberries, peel and slice kiwis, and chop pineapple into bite-sized pieces.
  6. Carefully fold the prepared fruits into the cheesecake mixture using a spatula.
  7. Transfer the salad into a serving bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
  8. Just before serving, sprinkle toasted shredded coconut flakes over the top.
