Pineapple Pudding

Pineapple Pudding, an easy to make dessert which my lil' one loves to dig in.Try making it with different flavoured jello and fruits.I am sure your kids will love it..hmmm..even the bigger ones..:)This is my entry for this month's AFAM - Pineapple.





Ingredients

Jello - 1 packet (Pineapple or orange flavoured)
Pineapple chunks - 1 can (i used Dole brand)
Cool Whip - 4 ounce
Condensed milk - 1/2 can
Cream Cheese - 2 ounce (optional)

Method

Keep aside few pieces of pineapple chunks for garnishing.Blend pineapple chunks into a smooth mixture.Do not add the juice,keep it aside.Make jello as per packet instructions.(You can use the pineapple juice from the dole can instead of cold water for making jello).When the jello powder completely dissolved,add pineapple mixture,condensed milk and cool whip and whisk it well.Everything should be in cooperated very well.Pour this jello mix into molds or small containers.Refrigerate for at least 4-5 hrs before serving.Garnish with pineapple chunks.If you are using molds, then just before serving place them in a bed of warm water, which helps the pudding to come out easily.I used a small glass bowl as the mold this time.
