{Recipe} Layered Pudding Dessert

At this time of year, we look for the simple things and there is nothing more simple than making a layered pudding dessert. Besides cooking the berries, it is literally layering your ingredients. It looks amazing and it is what I call a “wow” dessert.

Here is what you need:

–          vanilla pudding

–          4 cups of  berries – we used blueberries

–          ¼ cup of sugar

–          2 tsp of cornstarch

–          cool whip/whipped cream

–          shredded coconut

Directions:

Step 1: Combine berries, sugar and cornstarch in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a simmer and cook until the berries begin to break down. Remove from heat and set aside until cool.

Step 2: To assemble, layer the pudding and berries in your containers starting with the pudding on the bottom and alternating back and for with the berries.

Step 3: Add a spoonful of whipped cream or cool whip to the top and sprinkle generously over the top shredded coconut. Serve immediately.
