For best results, ensure the cream cheese is fully softened before beating to avoid lumps. Toasting the pecans enhances their flavor and adds a delightful crunch. Toast them in a dry skillet over medium heat until fragrant, or bake them in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for 5-7 minutes. If you prefer a less sweet salad, reduce the amount of confectioner's sugar. Feel free to customize the fruit selection based on your preferences and what's in season. Consider adding sliced strawberries, blueberries, or grapes. For a richer flavor, use full-fat cream cheese. Gently fold in all ingredients to maintain the airy texture of the whipped topping.
