Ingredients

Scale

Dip

  • 1 box (3.4 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 1/2 cups (355 ml) dairy-based eggnog
  • 1 container (8 ounces / 226 grams) Cool Whip whipped topping
  • Pinch of ground nutmeg (for garnish)

For Serving

  • Walkers Gingerbread Cookies or other preferred dippers (such as fruit slices)

Instructions

  1. Mix pudding and eggnog: In a medium bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and the eggnog until the mixture is smooth. Allow it to sit for about 5 minutes so the pudding thickens properly.
  2. Fold in whipped topping: Gently fold the Cool Whip whipped topping into the thickened pudding mixture until fully combined and smooth, creating a light and fluffy dip.
  3. Chill the dip: Transfer the pudding dip to a serving bowl and refrigerate until ready to serve, ensuring it remains chilled and maintains its texture.
  4. Garnish and serve: Just before serving, sprinkle the top of the dip with a pinch of ground nutmeg for a festive touch. Provide Walkers Gingerbread Cookies or your favorite dippers alongside for serving.

Notes

  • Always use dairy-based eggnog to ensure proper consistency and flavor.
  • This recipe can be made with sugar-free instant pudding mix and sugar-free Cool Whip for a lower-sugar option.
  • For a homemade touch, substitute Cool Whip with freshly whipped cream made from 1 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream (whip to about 3 cups volume).
  • To create an eggnog pudding pie, try using a gingerbread cookie-based shortbread crust as the base.
