Whipped Pudding Frosting

Ingredients

  • 1 (3.4 oz) package instant pudding mix (vanilla or your choice of flavor)
  • 1 cup cold milk
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar (optional, for extra sweetness)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together the instant pudding mix and cold milk until smooth.
  2. Let the pudding set in the fridge for about 5 minutes until it thickens.
  3. In a separate large bowl, whip the heavy cream (and powdered sugar if using) with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  4. Gently fold the chilled pudding into the whipped cream until fully combined and fluffy.
  5. Add vanilla extract if desired, and gently mix again.
  6. Use immediately to frost cakes, cupcakes, or as a creamy dessert topping. Keep refrigerated if not using right away.

Want me to make it dairy-free, add a chocolate version, or anything else?
