Pudding Mix Frosting Recipe - (4.2/5) image

Provided by á-646

Number Of Ingredients 2

1 small (3.4-ounce) package chocolate instant pudding
2 cups heavy whipping cream, cold

Steps:

  • Using a Kitchen Aid mixer with the whisk attachment (or any whisking contraption) pour pudding mix and heavy whipping cream into the bowl and whisk for 2 to 3 minutes or until stiff. Place in refrigerator to chill if you won't be using for a few hours or just keep on the counter top. Notes: Refrigerating will cause the frosting to get extra thick, so if you plan on piping the frosting out, your hand will get a work out. You can do this with ANY instant pudding mix, just replace the milk called for on the box with heavy whipping cream and whip!

HOMEMADE PUDDING MIX



Homemade Pudding Mix image

"Whole milk and butter give this delicious pudding its rich creamy flavor," explains Gayle Becker of Mt. Clemens, Michigan. "For a fat-free version, leave out the butter and substitute water for the 2 cups milk in the pudding. Since the mix already includes nonfat dry milk, it will still be creamy and calcium-rich."
