Recipe Variations

- Kid friendly - add crushed cookies to the top like I do with my Oreo Cheesecake Pudding Cups.

Storage Tips
- Store the Strawberry Pudding Cups in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Any longer and the pudding will get runny.
- Make sure you cover each pudding cup with plastic wrap.
Freezing Tips
- Instant pudding recipes do not freeze well. The gelatin in the pudding does not hold well to freezing and will liquify once defrosted.
Top Recipe Tip
Make sure you combine the pudding mix thoroughly with the milk.
