Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant coconut cream pudding mix and whole milk for about 2 minutes until thick and creamy.
- In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed for 3-4 minutes until light and fluffy.
- Gently fold the Cool Whip into the cream cheese mixture until combined, then fold in the sweetened coconut flakes.
- Combine the thick pudding mixture with the Cool Whip mixture, stirring gently. Transfer to a serving bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 1-2 hours.
- Serve chilled, optionally topped with toasted coconut flakes, alongside graham crackers, Nilla Wafers, or banana slices.
Notes
Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature to avoid lumps. Taste test and adjust powdered sugar for preferred sweetness. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 4 days.
