I’ve made thus 3 times now, it’s soooo good and really simple to make. Thank you for sharing this recipe!!!
I made this last night & it’s quite runny…do I make the pudding up as I normally would or do I just add the pudding unmixed to the jell-o?
Just the mix!
I made this today with strawberry jello, cream cheese pudding, 16 oz of fresh strawberries and the marshmallows it was nummy.
That sounds amazing!
Hi there. I’m looking forward to making this sweet treat for my kids. However, my comment is just a general comment about your site: There are SO many ads that it’s hard to even get to the recipe. Perhaps consider fewer? Just a thought. ThanksQ
Hey Carmen! I’m sorry your experience to finding the recipe was negative, we try to keep our ads minimal but they are managed by a 3rd party. I think right now with the way things are with ad revenue they are adding more to make up for some losses. We want you and our other readers to have a good experience when you visit, so we really appreciate your feedback! We will talk to them about having less! :)
Please can you give an answer for the size of the jello in the pudding. I can’t believe on all these recipes nobody puts the size of the jello and the pudding and then when somebody ask they don’t answer so if anyone knows would you please tell me I would like to make this.
Hey Maggie! It’s the standard 3 oz boxes of pudding and jello mix. We are sorry that we didn’t specify that before.
What size box of jallo/ pudding
Thawed or frozen cool whip?
Thawed!
