I got this recipe off the lid of the cool whip contanier. All it uses is Cool whip, Jello pudding , and graham cracker crust. I can not find the recipe and I can not remeber how much milk and cool whip I need to add to the pudding. My 8 y/o son wants to make this tonight, can anyone help?

Looked around and found the cool whip site. Boy there are a ton of recipes there!

I'm looking to see what would work for you.

Found this:


Mocha Mousse


Ingredients
1-1/2 cups cold fat free milk
1 Tbsp. MAXWELL HOUSE Instant Coffee
1 pkg. (4-serving size) JELL-O Chocolate Flavor Instant Pudding & Pie Filling
1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon
2 cups thawed COOL WHIP FREE Whipped Topping, divided

Preparation
POUR milk into medium bowl. Add instant coffee; beat with wire whisk 1 minute. Add pudding mix and cinnamon; beat an additional 2 minutes or until well blended. Gently stir in 1-1/2 cups of the whipped topping.

POUR into serving bowl or 6 individual dessert dishes.

REFRIGERATE 1 hour or until ready to serve. Top with remaining 1/2 cup whipped topping.

Here's another one that might work for you:

Foolproof Chocolate Mousse

1 pk Chocolate instant pudding
1 Cool Whip or Whipped Cream

Make the pudding according to package directions. Fold it into some Cool Whip or Whipped Cream. Refrigerate. Eat.

Notes: "...first, you get something that tastes almost exactly like the real thing and second, it always sets (unless you add too much whipped cream!) and is rarely grainy.

Variations: Swirl a little raspberry jam through it or add your favorite liqueur.

Thanks Beth, the second one was the one I needed. I will just put it in a pie crust. My son is now having a great time splattering pudding on the counter. I am also going to educate him on cleaning up after he is done. :)

Good luck educating him to clean! I'm still working on that one with my kids. :rolleyes:
