Total Time: 10 mins
Cuisine: American
Serves: 2 cups frosting
Ingredients
- 1 package instant pudding mix (any flavor)
- 2 cups milk
- 1 cup whipped topping
Instructions
- Gather all the ingredients: 1 package of instant pudding mix (any flavor), 2 cups of milk, and 1 cup of whipped topping.
- In a medium-sized mixing bowl, pour in the 2 cups of cold milk.
- Add the entire package of instant pudding mix to the bowl with the milk.
- Using a whisk or an electric mixer, blend the milk and pudding mix together for about 2 minutes until the mixture thickens and is smooth.
- Once the pudding has thickened, gently fold in the 1 cup of whipped topping. Use a spatula to combine until the mixture is well blended and fluffy, being careful not to deflate the whipped topping.
- After combining, taste the frosting and adjust the flavor if desired by adding more whipped topping or additional pudding mix, depending on your preference.
- Once the frosting is ready, use it immediately to frost cakes, cupcakes, or any dessert of your choice.
- If not using right away, cover the frosting with plastic wrap, pressing it directly onto the surface to prevent a skin from forming, and refrigerate until ready to use.
Tips
- Temperature Matters: Always use cold milk to ensure your pudding sets properly and achieves the perfect consistency.
- Flavor Flexibility: Experiment with different pudding mix flavors like vanilla, chocolate, butterscotch, or pistachio to create unique frosting variations.
- Whipping Technique: Fold the whipped topping gently to maintain its light and airy texture, preventing deflation.
- Chilling Option: If your frosting seems too soft, refrigerate it for 15-20 minutes to help it firm up before spreading.
- Storage Hack: Press plastic wrap directly onto the frosting's surface when storing to prevent a dry skin from forming.
- Decoration Tip: For a more professional look, use a piping bag with different tips to create beautiful frosting designs on your desserts.
