Ingredients

Scale

Pudding Base

  • 3 ounce box instant coconut cream Jell-O pudding
  • 2 cups whole milk

Cream Cheese Mixture

  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 8 ounce container Cool Whip topping, thawed
  • 1 cup sweetened coconut flakes

Toppings and Serving

  • Toasted coconut flakes, for serving
  • Graham crackers, Nilla Wafers, or banana slices, for serving

Instructions

  1. Prepare the pudding: In a large bowl, combine the instant coconut cream pudding powder and 2 cups of whole milk. Whisk vigorously for about 2 minutes until the mixture becomes very thick. Set aside to rest.
  2. Mix the cream cheese base: In another large bowl, use an electric mixer to beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and fluffy. Then add the thawed Cool Whip and continue mixing until fully combined. Gently fold in the sweetened coconut flakes for added texture and flavor.
  3. Combine mixtures: Slowly fold the thickened pudding mixture into the cream cheese and Cool Whip mixture until well blended, creating a creamy and cohesive dip.
  4. Chill the dip: Cover the bowl and refrigerate the dip for 1 to 2 hours to allow it to thicken and set completely, enhancing the flavors and texture.
  5. Serve and garnish: Before serving, sprinkle toasted coconut flakes generously over the top of the dip. Serve with graham crackers, Nilla Wafers, or fresh banana slices for dipping.

Notes

  • Make sure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for smooth mixing.
  • Use sweetened coconut flakes for the best flavor, and toast additional coconut flakes to enhance the topping.
  • You can substitute Cool Whip with another whipped topping of your choice if desired.
  • For a lighter version, consider using low-fat cream cheese and milk, and a sugar substitute if needed.
  • Store leftovers covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
