These Berry Vanilla Pudding Cups are homemade vanilla pudding topped with strawberries, blueberries, and freshly whipped cream.
I feel like pudding is sometimes a forgotten dessert. But a good homemade pudding is one of my favorite treats! My favorite is tapioca pudding, which I really need to share a recipe for.
I love vanilla, chocolate, and lemon. And I love a good rice pudding! These Berry Vanilla Pudding Cups make the perfect simple, delicious, festive dessert. And your kids will love helping prepare them.
These Berry Vanilla Pudding Cups contain two of my favorite things: homemade pudding, and fresh fruit! I know a lot of people resort to boxed pudding mixes, probably because they think it’s simpler, but making homemade pudding is extremely easy! And you probably already have everything on hand to make it. Plus, there’s really no comparison when it comes to taste.
Sometimes the simplest desserts taste the best, and these Berry Vanilla Pudding Cups are one of our family’s favorites!
