Ingredients:
For the Pudding Base:
1 box instant white chocolate pudding mix
1 cup cold milk
½ cup peppermint-flavored vodka (or regular vodka with 1 tsp peppermint extract)
1 cup whipped topping (e.g., Cool Whip), thawed
For Garnish:
Crushed candy canes
Whipped cream
Mini candy canes or peppermint sticks (optional)
Instructions:
Prepare the Pudding Base:
In a medium bowl, whisk together the instant white chocolate pudding mix and cold milk. Mix until the pudding begins to thicken, about 2 minutes.
Stir in the peppermint-flavored vodka (or vodka with peppermint extract) and mix to combine.
Gently fold in the whipped topping until the mixture is smooth and well combined. This will make the pudding light and fluffy.
Chill:
Spoon the pudding mixture into serving glasses or a large bowl. Refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours to allow it to set properly.
Garnish:
Before serving, top with whipped cream, crushed candy canes, and mini candy canes or peppermint sticks for a festive touch.
Serve:
Enjoy this sweet and creamy peppermint dessert as a fun holiday treat!
