Ingredients

  • 1 package 3.4 oz instant pistachio pudding mix – the star of the show.
  • 2 cups cold milk – whole milk makes it extra creamy but whatever you’ve got works.
  • 1 cup whipped topping optional – because we’re fancy and indulgent.
  • Chopped pistachios optional – extra nutty crunch, obviously.
  • Chocolate chips or shavings optional – not required, but why not? Dessert = happiness.

Instructions

  • Grab a mixing bowl. Any size will do, just make sure it’s clean—trust me, pudding with dust isn’t fun.
  • Pour in the pudding mix. Seriously, dump it in. Don’t overthink it.
  • Add cold milk. Slowly pour the milk while stirring so it doesn’t go all lumpy.
  • Whisk like you mean it. About 2 minutes or until the pudding thickens and turns a dreamy shade of green. Bonus: your arms get a tiny workout.
  • Fold in whipped topping if using. This makes it extra creamy and dessert-magical.
  • Chill. Pop it in the fridge for at least 5–10 minutes to let it set. Impatience is real, but trust me, it’s worth it.
  • Top it off. Sprinkle chopped pistachios, chocolate chips, or whatever feels right. Boom—instant dessert perfection.
