Pudding Cool Whip Frosting is a simple, yet decadent topping that adds a rich and creamy texture to any dessert. This frosting is light, fluffy, and incredibly smooth, making it the perfect complement to cakes, cupcakes, brownies, or even pies.
Ingredients:
- 1 (3.4 oz) package instant vanilla pudding mix
- 1 cup cold milk
- 1 (8 oz) tub Cool Whip (thawed)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional, for extra flavor)
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for sweetness adjustment)
Directions:
- In a medium-sized bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and cold milk. Whisk for about 2 minutes, until the mixture thickens and sets to a pudding consistency.
- Gently fold in the thawed Cool Whip until fully combined and smooth. Be careful not to overmix, as you want to keep the frosting light and fluffy.
- If you’d like a sweeter frosting, add powdered sugar to taste and stir to combine. For an extra hint of flavor, add a teaspoon of vanilla extract.
- Once the frosting is well-combined, spread it generously over cakes, cupcakes, or brownies. It can also be used as a filling for pies or layered desserts.
- For best results, refrigerate the frosted dessert for 30 minutes to allow the frosting to set up nicely before serving.
