Heavens delight

chocolateLVR

Good Day!

Hope someone can help. When I was a child my mother made a soupy concoction that she call "Heaven's Delight" I can't remember all the ingredients but I do remember that she used to cut up large colored marshmallow's, used canned cling peaches, whipping cream and she may have used half and half too, cool whip may have been folded in too but I'm just not sure, other ingredients were added too but I just cant remember them, I do know that coconut was not added. All the ingredients were mixed in a bowl creating a soupy kind of dessert. I just wish I had the recipe. My mother has been gone for 25 years....would love to have the recipe to remember.
