Ingredients
  • 1 cup Cold milk
  • 1 package Instant pudding mix (any flavor)
Directions

    Pour the cold milk into a large mixing bowl.
  3. 3
    Sprinkle the instant pudding mix evenly over the surface of the milk.
  4. 4
    Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the mixture is thick and holds soft peaks.
  5. 5
    Use immediately to frost cupcakes or layer cakes, or refrigerate briefly to firm up before piping.

Note

For best results, use milk straight from the refrigerator. Warmer milk may result in a thinner consistency.

This frosting is best used immediately after mixing. If stored in the refrigerator, it may become watery upon standing; stir gently before serving if necessary.

You can add a drop of food coloring to match your theme, but avoid adding too much liquid as it can deflate the frosting.

This frosting is not as stable as buttercream for intricate piping designs in warm environments. It is ideal for simple spreading or rosettes in cool conditions.
