Step-by-Step Instructions
First things first, start by preparing the instant pudding mix. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the pudding mix and cold milk until it thickens, which usually happens in just a couple of minutes. While it’s thickening, I like to whip my heavy cream with the powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. This makes the pudding so airy and light! After that, gently fold the whipped cream into the pudding mixture until it’s nice and smooth. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
