→ Toppings
06 -
Chocolate curls or crushed mint candies to decorate
07 -
1 cup of whipped topping or whipped cream
# Instructions:
01 -
Grab a bowl and mix the chocolate pudding powder with 2 cups of cold milk. Blend it well until smooth with no lumps. Let it sit for 5 minutes to thicken up properly.
02 -
In another bowl, combine the mint pudding mix with 2 cups of cold milk and whisk until it’s creamy. If you’d like a brighter green, stir in a few drops of food coloring. Give it 5 minutes to set.
03 -
After the puddings are nicely thickened, it’s time to layer them. Use clear glasses or cups. Add a layer of chocolate pudding first. You can spoon it in or try a piping bag for neater layers. Follow up with a layer of mint pudding. Keep going until the cups are nearly full, ending on a mint layer.
04 -
Spoon or pipe a big dollop of whipped cream on top of each cup. For a fancier look, use a piping bag with a decorative tip.
05 -
Dust the whipped cream with chocolate curls, crushed mints, or even mini chocolate chips. Pop the cups into the fridge for at least 30 minutes so they’re perfectly chilled when served.
# Notes:
01 -
You can make these puddings a day before serving, but add the whipped topping last for freshness.

Looking for a fun twist? Layer in crushed cookies or brownie bits for extra texture.
