Instant Coconut Cream Pudding Is Your Start To An Easy And Luxurious Dessert
BY LINDSAY CRONIN
While instant coconut cream pudding is cheap and easy to make, it is also a featured ingredient in Tasting Table's elevated coconut cream lush recipe from Michelle McGlinn.
Lush is a layered, no-bake dessert that typically features a base of graham crackers, whipped cream cheese, a sort of fruity-flavored cream or jam, and a whipped cream topping.
For this recipe, simply create the fruity layer by mixing one 3.4-ounce box of instant coconut cream pudding with 2 cups of heavy whipping cream.
When preparing the instant mix, swap out the regular milk with heavy cream to make the pudding creamier, adding a velvety smooth layer with a sweet nuttiness and tropical tang.
Beyond lush recipes, instant coconut cream pudding can be used in other desserts, like a coconut custard pie, pineapple coconut poke cake, or chocolate coconut smoothie bowl.
