Step 1: Get Set

Start by ensuring your Cool Whip is completely thawed. Once thawed, gather all your ingredients and get ready to mix!

Step 2: Mix It Together

In a large bowl, combine the Cool Whip, instant pudding mix, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Use a whisk or electric mixer on low speed to mix until smooth and thick, resembling frosting.

Step 3: Add Color (Optional)

If you want a colorful twist, add a few drops of food coloring and stir until the color is evenly incorporated throughout the mixture.

Step 4: Get Your Tray Ready

Line a baking tray with parchment paper. This will make it easy to remove the candies once they’re frozen and will prevent them from sticking.

Step 5: Shape the Candies

Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, drop dollops of the mixture onto the parchment paper. You can adjust the size of each candy based on your preference, but aim for bite-sized portions for easy eating.

Step 6: Decorate (Optional)

To make the candies extra festive, sprinkle them with colored sugar or sprinkles. This adds an additional layer of fun and flair to the treat!

Step 7: Freeze and Set

Place the tray in the freezer and let the candies freeze for about 2-3 hours, or until they are firm and fully set. The result will be a cool, creamy treat that’s perfect for a quick sweet snack.

Step 8: Serve and Enjoy

Once frozen, remove the candies from the freezer. Serve immediately for a cool, creamy indulgence that’s sure to delight!
