Step-by-Step Instructions
Let’s get into the fun part—making the Strawberry Banana Pudding Dream! First, in a large mixing bowl, I start by whisking together the instant pudding mix and cold milk. I love how the mix thickens almost immediately! Once it’s well combined, I then let it sit for about 5 minutes to fully set. In a separate bowl, I whip the heavy cream until it forms stiff peaks, folding in some powdered sugar and vanilla extract for sweetness and flavor. This adds a rich, creamy texture to the pudding that makes it utterly irresistible. (See the next page below to continue steps…)
