To prepare, you typically combine the contents of the package with cold milk in a bowl. Whisking is essential to ensure the powder dissolves completely and to prevent lumps from forming. Continue whisking for a few minutes until the mixture begins to thicken. For a pie filling, pour the thickened pudding into a pre-baked pie crust. For pudding cups, spoon it into individual serving dishes. It sets further as it chills, so refrigerating it for at least an hour is recommended before serving to achieve the best texture.
How it differs from similar foods
Unlike traditional cooked puddings that require simmering on the stovetop, this instant version sets without heat. This means less time and effort are needed. The texture can be slightly different, often a bit lighter and smoother than a cooked pudding, which some people prefer for its ease of preparation.

How to keep the rest
After preparing the pudding, store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It is best consumed within a few days. Unprepared mix should be kept in a cool, dry place away from moisture to maintain its quality and prevent clumping.
