Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 8 oz Cool Whip (thawed)
- 8 oz Crushed pineapple (canned, in juice)
- 1 package Instant vanilla pudding mix
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, add the entire container of Cool Whip.
Open the can of crushed pineapple and do not drain the juice. Pour the pineapple and its juice into the mixing bowl.
Sprinkle the instant vanilla pudding mix over the Cool Whip and pineapple mixture.
Using a silicone spatula or wooden spoon, gently fold all the ingredients together until fully combined and smooth. Avoid over-mixing to maintain the light and fluffy texture.
Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate the frosting for at least 30 minutes to allow it to set and thicken.
After refrigeration, spread the frosting over your cake, cupcakes, or dessert of choice. Alternatively, serve it as a dip with fresh fruit or cookies.
Store any leftover frosting in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days.
