Sand Pudding
I'm so excited that Summer is here and I can finally share this amazing Sand Pudding Recipe with you. I've mentioned this Sand Pudding recipe before in my Cookies and Cream Pudding recipe.
It. Is. Amazing. I mean, of course, it's a ridiculously adorable treat for kids. Perfect for picnics, barbecues, and cookouts. But also, it's just plain delicious. Seriously. This Sand Pudding recipe the best pudding recipe I've ever had, and I now adapt ALL of my pudding-making so that it's just like this one.
The best part? This Sand Pudding recipe is still super easy! You can still use instant pudding, just mix in a few delicious (and worth it!) extras.
If you're making a Sand Pudding recipe for a party, it's super cute to serve it in a bucket like this one. My kids always think I'm about to serve them a bowl full of sand!

OH.MY.GOODNESS! This is so adorable! My granddaughter's beach themed birthday party next month will definitely serve this. Even if I have to make it in one big bucket and have everyone take a shovel to their plates. Great idea! So happy you shared it with Thursday Favorite Things blog hop!

Can't wait to make this! I used to do a "Dirt Cake" for the grands when they were young. Just found your blog via Katherine's and so happy I did. I'm a new follower and email subscriber. I have an "addiction" to desserts so will be checking your recipes.
Stop by and say hi when you can!
