2-1/2 cups (half of a 10-ounce bag) miniature marshmallows
1 cup chopped pecans
2 cups drained crushed pineapple
1 cup coconut
1 carton (16 ounces) sour cream
maraschino cherries, for garnish
Instructions

Mix together all the ingredients. Chill in the refrigerator. Serve portions topped with a maraschino cherry.
