Walking Pudding
A quick and fun treat featuring flavored instant pudding served in ice cream cones, perfect for kids and parties, offering a creamy, sweet snack in a portable form.
Ingredients
Instructions
- Mix instant pudding with milk in a bowl, according to package directions.
- Pour the pudding into flat bottom ice cream cones.
- Refrigerate until the pudding is set.
Tips & Substitutions
For a creamier texture, use whole milk instead of low-fat or skim. You can also mix in crushed fruit, such as bananas or strawberries, for added flavor. If you prefer a firmer consistency, allow the pudding to set longer in the refrigerator. Consider trying different flavors of instant pudding for variety, or use leftovers to make Kobi Russ' No-Bake Cookies as a fun twist.
Serving Suggestions
Serve the walking pudding cones as a fun dessert for parties or gatherings. They pair beautifully with fruit salads or a scoop of whipped cream on the side. For a more substantial treat, consider serving with a slice of No Fuss Pumpkin Bread for a delightful combination of flavors.
Storage & Reheating
Store any leftover pudding in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It should stay fresh for up to three days. If the pudding starts to separate, give it a gentle stir before serving. Avoid freezing the pudding in cones, as the ice cream cones may become soggy and lose their crunch.
