- 3.4 oz instant vanilla pudding
- 1 cup milk
- ½ teaspoon peppermint extract
- 5 drops red gel food coloring

- 1 tablespoon crushed peppermint candies
Pour the dry pudding mix into a large mixing bowl

Add the peppermint extract and food coloring, and mix until combined
Gently fold in the Cool Whip using a spatula until well blended
Fold in the crushed peppermint candies
Refrigerate until ready to serve. Transfer to a serving bowl and top with crushed peppermint candies
Make sure Cool Whip is thawed.
Don't use the amount of milk called for on the pudding mix, and be sure you are using Instant Pudding.
Store in the refrigerator, and refrigerate within 2 hours of serving.
Decorate the dip with crushed peppermint the day you are serving it, as peppermint tends to get runny in the refrigerator.
You can make the dip up to 2 days ahead of time.
