Mom’S Figgy Pudding
- 2 boxes (Large 6-serving Size Box) Instant Vanilla Pudding (sugar Free Or Not)
- 4 cups Cold Milk (1% Or Higher)
- 1 can (15 Oz. Can) Oregon Brand Thompson Grapes
- 1 can (15 Oz. Can) Oregon Brand Kadota Figs
- 1 can (15 Oz. Can) Mandarin Oranges
- 1 jar (10 Oz. Jar) Maraschino Cherries
- 3 pints Whipping Cream, Divided
- 4 whole Large Bananas (not Overly Ripe)
- 1 pound Chopped Walnuts (optional)
- Mix the pudding with the milk using a whisk for a couple of minutes, then cover with plastic wrap and put it in the fridge to set up nice and firm. In the meantime, drain the cans/jar of fruit thoroughly and whip up 1 pint of whipping cream till it's stiff. After the pudding has chilled for 15 minutes, fold in the drained fruit, bananas, whipped cream and nuts, if using. Chill for another hour or two. Just before serving, whip the last two pints of whipped cream until stiff and gently fold into the pudding mixture. I'm telling you, you have to try this delightful family favorite.
- Note: The Oregon brand Thompson Grapes can be a challenge to find but look online for retailer near you. These can't be replaced with fuit cocktail, it's just not the same.
