Ingredients
Scale
Pudding Layers
- 1 5.9 oz. box of chocolate pudding, prepared
- 1 5.9 oz. box of vanilla pudding, prepared
- 1-2 drops green food coloring
Decoration
- Candy eyeballs
- Lollipop or wooden sticks
- ¼ cup reserved chocolate pudding (from above)
- 8 paper cups (5-9 oz. size)
Instructions
- Prepare Pudding: Mix both pudding boxes according to the package instructions. Add 1 to 2 drops of green food coloring to the vanilla pudding and stir until you achieve your desired Frankenstein green shade.
- Layer Pudding in Cups: Scoop about ½ cup of the green vanilla pudding into the bottom of each of the 8 paper cups, filling each about two-thirds full.
- Add Chocolate Layer: Reserve ¼ cup of chocolate pudding in a separate bowl for decoration. Then, spoon about ¼ cup of chocolate pudding over the green layer in each cup to make a layered effect with a 2:1 ratio of green to chocolate pudding.
- Insert Sticks: Insert a lollipop or wooden stick into the center of each pudding pop, making sure it stands upright for easy eating later.
- Freeze Pops: Place the cups on a baking sheet for stability and freeze for approximately 5 hours or until the pudding pops are firm and fully frozen.
- Remove Cups and Decorate: Once frozen solid, carefully peel off the paper cups. Transfer reserved chocolate pudding into a piping bag or a plastic bag with a tip cut off.
- Add Face Details: Pipe a stitched mouth design onto each pudding pop using the reserved chocolate pudding. To attach candy eyeballs, pipe a small dot of the reserved pudding on the back of each eyeball and press them firmly onto the pops.
- Final Freeze and Serve: Serve immediately for a softer finish or return the decorated pops to the freezer for 10-15 minutes to set the eyes and mouth decorations firmly before serving.
Notes
- Use paper cups sized between 5 and 9 ounces for easier handling and freezing.
- Make sure the pudding is completely firm before peeling off the paper cups to avoid deformations.
- These pudding pops offer a fun and kid-friendly Halloween treat that’s easy to prepare and customize.
- Store leftover pops in the freezer in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
