Heat the mixture to a full boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Remove the pan from the stove.[1]
4
Pour the pudding into a bowl and place in the fridge for 5 minutes. The pudding may seem thin, but will thicken as it cools.

Once the 5 minutes are up, take a spoon and gingerly stick it into the pudding. If it hasn't set, leave the pudding in the fridge a while longer.

Once your pudding has set, remove it from the fridge and stir it. Mix in any additional ingredients (banana slices, strawberries, etc.).
7
Spoon the pudding into individual serving dishes.[2]
8
Add any toppers such as whipped cream, sprinkles, coconut, etc.
9
Serve and enjoy your pudding!

Can I make two boxes at once?

Assuming they are the same type and flavor, yes. But you would need to double the measurements to compensate.
