Equipment
- Mixing Bowls
- Whisk
- Clear Cups or Dessert Glasses
Ingredients
Pudding Layers
- 1 package instant chocolate pudding mix (3.4 oz)
- 2 cups skim milk or plant-based milk for a dairy-free option
- 1 package instant mint pudding mix (3.4 oz)
- 2 cups skim milk or plant-based milk
- 1 cup light whipped cream or whipped topping
- green food coloring optional, for an extra vibrant mint layer
Garnish
- chocolate shavings or a few crushed mint candies
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, simply whisk together the chocolate pudding mix with 2 cups of your chosen milk until it's smooth. Let it sit for about 5 minutes; it will start to thicken beautifully.
- Grab another bowl and whisk the mint pudding mix with the remaining 2 cups of milk. If you want a brighter green, add a few drops of green food coloring – it’s totally optional but adds a fun pop! Let this mixture thicken for 5 minutes as well.
- Now for the fun part! Get your clear cups or dessert glasses ready. Spoon a layer of the chocolate pudding into the bottom of each cup. Gently top it with a layer of the mint pudding. Repeat these layers until your cups are filled to your liking.
- Dollop or pipe a generous swirl of light whipped cream on top of the pudding layers in each cup.
- Sprinkle a little chocolate shavings or a few crushed mint candies over the whipped cream for a festive finish.
- Pop your pudding cups into the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes. This helps them set up perfectly and ensures a wonderfully cool and refreshing treat!
