Categories     Desserts

Time 2m

Number Of Ingredients 5

3-1/4 cups + 2 Tbsp granulated sugar
1 cup + 2 Tbsp cornstarch (or your preferred thickener)
3/4 cup vanilla pudding mix
2 cups milk
2 Tbsp vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Stir the sugar and cornstarch together. Store your vanilla pudding mix in an air-tight container. It's sized to fit a quart jar.
  • If you don't want to have to add fresh milk to your pudding when you make it, just add 4 cups of powdered milk to the mix, and measure out an extra 2/3 cup of mix for each batch.
  • Combine all the wet and dry ingredients in a sauce pan. Stir continuously over medium heat. It'll take a little while for the dry ingredients to stir in completely. When your pudding thickens and begins to boil, it's done. This should take around 12 minutes.
  • The pudding will continue to thicken as it cools.

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."

VANILLA PUDDING MIX



Vanilla Pudding Mix image

As hard as I tried I could not find a recipe for Vanilla Pudding mix that I could use as a base for other puddings or to add to other recipe's that I wanted to make, yet didn't want to buy a bunch of packages of pudding for. After 5 (yes I said 5) attempts I came up with one that was creamy enough, and tasty enough to call good. This can be made ahead...then just add a few ingredients and you have pudding. Great for gifting and camping...Higher in Calories yet low in sodium and potassium.*** NOTE*** for those missing the flavor of eggs or having problems with this setting up properly ... I found I liked it better when I added two egg yolks slightly beaten and put some of the hot mix in whipped it and added to the pudding mix as it cooked. You are right it adds to the flavor.

Time 30m

Yield 9 batches, 36 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 cups instant nonfat dry milk powder
4 cups sugar
1 1/3 cups cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups milk
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Steps:

  • Combine first 4 ingredients into a large bowl, mixing well with each addition. Pour into a food processor and process until a fine powder.
  • At this stage you can put it into a jar with a good seal, label and add a card with the following instructions for gifting, or label it for your own future use.
  • Over double boiler, with water to boiling stage, put 1 cup of powdered pudding mix into saucepan, slowly adding milk while you stir (I used a whisk for lighter fluffier pudding) Stir constantly for approximately 10-15 minutes or until pudding comes to thickness of your liking. Remove from double boiler, add vanilla and butter, whisk or stir until throughly blended.
  • Pour into individual serving dishes and refrigerate.
  • NOTE:.
  • Due to DH illness I used reconstituted dry milk for the 2 c milk, this does affect the flavor slightly.

Tips:

  • Use whole milk: Whole milk will give your pudding a richer, creamier texture than skim or low-fat milk.
  • Don't overcook the pudding: Overcooked pudding will be thick and rubbery. Cook it just until it reaches a simmer, then remove it from the heat.
  • Let the pudding cool completely before serving: This will allow it to thicken and set properly.
  • Serve the pudding with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include whipped cream, fruit, and nuts.
  • Store the pudding in the refrigerator for up to 3 days: Be sure to cover it tightly.

Conclusion:

With endless flavor possibilities and an impressive versatility, vanilla pudding mix can easily become your go-to shortcut ingredient for an array of homemade desserts. Whether you choose to use it as a base for a pie, mousse, or trifle; as a creamy center for your cupcakes, éclairs, or cream puffs; or simply as a delightful pudding topped with your favorite fruits or crumbles, vanilla pudding mix will always deliver a delicious and crowd-pleasing treat. So, embrace your creativity, experiment with different flavors and textures, and indulge in the delightful world of vanilla pudding mix.
