Everybody Do The Cool Whip!




As a kid we always used "COOL WHIP whipped topping" with all our desserts. Specially when it came to pumpkin or apple pie during the holidays! That was my favorite! And I honestly don’t remember a holiday without. And to this day, I still use it on my pies. I also loved to eat the COOL WHIP with fresh fruit! Made it that much better. 
Now, as an adult, I enjoy eating my fruit with the COOL WHIP Lite. Makes me feel a little bit better that it's not all the calories, but it's still just as sweet and tasty! And I love letting my daughter eat it on her fruit. She loves the stuff! She dips her strawberries in it and then says “Mmmm, Yummy!!”



Last year was the first year I made my husband a cake with the COOL WHIP frosting. He LOVED it! And it’s so easy to make too.
I'm not a fan of the tub of frosting that you can buy already made to just slap on a cake. I enjoy making my own using COOL WHIP! It's so quick and easy, and so tasty!! And it comes out so rich and creamy. It’s the best I’ve ever tasted, by far!

All you do is combine these items:
·  1 cup milk
·  1 (3 1/2 ounce) package instant pudding mix {any flavor}
· 1/4 cup powdered sugar
· 8 ounces COOL WHIP
~
· Mix pudding mix, sugar and milk.
· Beat with wire whisk for 2 minutes.
· Add COOL WHIP and mix well!

And, there you have it! Probably the worlds BEST homemade frosting you will ever taste! To Die For!
It’s funny to think about how things kind of follow a certain path. When I was a kid, we used COOL WHIP for our desserts or fruits, and now that I’m a Mommy, I use it in my family and serve it with those special treats! Make the homemade frosting with it because I think that it gives it that little special touch of {this is my creation}. I feel like it’s so much better and using a little bit of food coloring you can make it any color you want, and I think that’s the best part about using it in the homemade frosting! You can create any theme you want for the cake of your choice. Birthdays, holidays or whatever it may be! I know that come this August, I’ll be making my daughters 2nd birthday cake and I know for sure I’ll be making the frosting and using our tried and true COOL WHIP frosting recipe! Can’t ever go wrong with that!

I have never made cool whip frosting, but I'll have to try it! My grandma used to make a strawberry dessert for me when I was a kid, and she put a mixture of cool whip and cream cheese on top. So yummy!
