With just three simple ingredients, these refreshingly delicious Pudding Pops are going to be the summer hit! Kids and adults all agree that this simple pudding dessert is always a winner.

The recipe for these homemade chocolate pudding pops lets you eat one now – and have more for later. Talk about a simple treat that keeps on giving!

Pudding Pops

Why settle for eating pudding with a spoon when you can have a frozen treat instead? This pudding pop recipe combines two of my favorite flavors – chocolate and banana pudding.

That said, you can easily recreate this recipe with any pudding flavor combination that you like. Strawberry and banana would be delicious, as would chocolate and pistachio and the classic chocolate and vanilla combination.

Seriously – the pudding pop combinations are endless!

Can you Use Pudding to Make Popsicles?

Absolutely. In fact, it’s the thickness of the pudding that gives these popsicles that fudge texture we all love from the frozen treat!

As long as you carefully follow the directions to get the pudding flavors set up correctly, you can easily use other pudding flavors to make your frozen treats.

If you want to use just one flavor and not alternate, I made a note in the recipe card as well.

Pudding Pop Ingredients

Aside from instant pudding mix, this recipe literally calls for one other ingredient that you more than likely already have at home.

• dairy milk – For best results, use dairy milk. The higher the fat content, the thicker the popsicle texture.
• instant pudding – Any flavor of the instant pudding will work! If you happen to use non-instant pudding, be sure to follow the directions on the package for making the pudding correctly.

Can you use almond milk instead of milk?

If you don’t have dairy milk or don’t consume it, you can use almond milk for this pudding recipe. Just swap out the 4 cups of dairy milk and use 4 cups of almond milk instead. It’s really as simple as that.
