👩🍳 Instructions
Step 1: Whisk Pudding & Milk
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pudding mix and cold milk for 1–2 minutes until the mixture thickens slightly. Be sure not to let it fully set—it should still be soft and spreadable.
Step 2: Fold in Cool Whip
Gently fold the thawed Cool Whip into the pudding mixture using a spatula. Fold carefully to avoid deflating the Cool Whip, ensuring the frosting remains light and airy. Mix until smooth and fluffy.
Step 3: Chill & Frost
Let the frosting sit for 5 minutes to firm up slightly before using. This helps it hold its shape better when spreading or piping.
Spread the frosting onto cakes, cupcakes, or cookies, or pipe it using a piping bag for a decorative finish.
For best results, refrigerate frosted desserts until serving to keep the frosting cool and stable.
Tips for Success
Pudding Flavor Variations: Swap vanilla pudding for chocolate, cheesecake, pistachio, or any other flavor to complement your dessert.
Customization: Add a few drops of food coloring to match holidays, themes, or personal preferences. Sprinkles can also be folded in for a festive touch.
Storage: Store leftover frosting in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days . Stir gently before reusing to restore fluffiness.
Best Uses: This frosting pairs beautifully with chocolate cake, vanilla cupcakes, fruit tarts, or even as a dip for cookies and fresh fruit.
