Ingredients

Base Ingredients

  • Pistachio pudding mix – 1 package (3.4 oz)
  • Milk – 2 cups (cold)
  • Sweetened condensed milk – 1/2 cup
  • Whipped topping – 1 cup
  • Chopped pistachios – 1/2 cup

Instructions

  1. Mix the pudding: Combine the pistachio pudding mix with cold milk in a large bowl. Whisk well according to package directions until smooth and thickened.
  2. Add sweetness and creaminess: Stir in the sweetened condensed milk until fully incorporated to enrich the pudding’s texture and flavor.
  3. Fold in whipped topping: Gently fold the whipped topping into the pudding mixture, taking care to maintain the airy texture without deflating it.
  4. Incorporate chopped pistachios: Add chopped pistachios to the mixture, giving a slight crunch and intensifying the nutty taste in every spoonful.
  5. Chill and serve: Transfer the pudding to a serving dish or individual cups and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld and the pudding to set perfectly.

Notes

  • Chill ingredients beforehand: Using cold milk and whipped topping helps the pudding set better and stay creamy.
  • Don’t overmix: Fold the whipped topping gently to keep the dessert light and fluffy instead of dense.
  • Use fresh pistachios: Freshly chopped nuts have a brighter flavor and crunch compared to pre-packaged ones.
  • Customize sweetness: Adjust the amount of sweetened condensed milk based on your personal preference for sweetness.
  • Let it rest: Refrigeration time is crucial for flavors to develop fully and to achieve the perfect pudding consistency.
