WW Friendly Pudding Shots Directions:
-
Prepare the Pudding Mix:
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the sugar-free vanilla instant pudding mix with 2 cups of skim milk. Whisk until the mixture starts to thicken, about 2 minutes.
-
Incorporate Cream Cheese:
- Add 1/4 cup of light cream cheese to the pudding mixture. Blend until smooth and the cream cheese is fully incorporated.
-
Add Whipped Topping:
- Gently fold in 1 cup of fat-free whipped topping until the mixture is light and airy.
-
Adjust Sweetness:
- Taste the mixture and add zero-calorie sweetener as needed, up to 2 tablespoons. Adjust based on your sweetness preference.
-
Flavor Enhancement (Optional):
- Stir in 1 teaspoon of flavored extract (e.g., vanilla or almond) if desired.
-
Prepare the Mini Cupcake Liners:
- Place 24 mini cupcake liners on a baking sheet or serving tray.
-
Fill the Liners:
- Spoon or pipe the pudding mixture into the mini cupcake liners, smoothing the tops with the back of a spoon or spatula.
-
Chill the Pudding Shots:
- Refrigerate the filled liners for at least 1-2 hours, or until the pudding is set and firm.
-
Prepare Garnishes (Optional):
- Just before serving, top each pudding shot with fresh berries and/or a dollop of light whipped cream if desired.
-
Serve and Enjoy:
- Carefully remove each pudding shot from the mini cupcake liners and serve. Enjoy these low-point treats as a dessert or party snack.
-
Store Leftovers:
- Store any remaining pudding shots in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
