As hard as I tried I could not find a recipe for Vanilla Pudding mix that I could use as a base for other puddings or to add to other recipe's that I wanted to make, yet didn't want to buy a bunch of packages of pudding for. After 5 (yes I said 5) attempts I came up with one that was creamy enough, and tasty enough to call good. This can be made ahead...then just add a few ingredients and you have pudding. Great for gifting and camping...Higher in Calories yet low in sodium and potassium.

SERVES 36 , 9 batches (change servings and units)

Ingredients

4 cups instant nonfat dry milk powder
4 cups sugar
1 1/3 cups cornstarch
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 cups milk
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla

Directions

1
Combine first 4 ingredients into a large bowl, mixing well with each addition. Pour into a food processor and process until a fine powder.
2
At this stage you can put it into a jar with a good seal, label and add a card with the following instructions for gifting, or label it for your own future use.
3
Over double boiler, with water to boiling stage, put 1 cup of powdered pudding mix into saucepan, slowly adding milk while you stir (I used a whisk for lighter fluffier pudding) Stir constantly for approximately 10-15 minutes or until pudding comes to thickness of your liking. Remove from double boiler, add vanilla and butter, whisk or stir until throughly blended.
4
Pour into individual serving dishes and refrigerate.

NOTE:
6
Due to DH illness I used reconstituted dry milk for the 2 c milk, this does affect the flavor slightly.

This was very good and so easy. I substituted 4 cups splenda for the 4 cups of sugar. It worked great. Thanks

I scaled this to one batch. Your recipe saved me from a "pie disaster" (see my pineapple pie review). Thanks so much Chabear01! Roxygirl

For what it is, this is a good recipe. I do miss the taste and texture of eggs, but as a recipe meant to meet a specific health need, it's very good indeed. It's rich, creamy, sweet, and more flavorful than I thought it would be. It's easy to put together and easy to cook. I love a recipe that allows for a lot of versatility and this is it. Instead of vanilla, I could use any extract and any complimentary fruit and get a completely different dessert from one mix. Next time I'll try coconut extract and some sliced bananas, or almond extract with some toasted sliced almonds.
