Peanut Butter Pudding
I love to take a giant spoonful of peanut butter right from the jar and eat it! I guess eating this pudding by the spoonful would be a little classier in front of others, and not to mention, more delicious! It’s a creamy dessert that is delicious on its own or with some added toppings, like some chocolate candy pieces, peanuts, or caramel to jazz it up a bit.

How to Make Peanut Butter Pudding
It’s easy to make this pudding. Get out a saucepan and the ingredients you need to get this made so it can be chilled before enjoying it.
In the saucepan, over medium heat, combine the sugar, cornstarch, and salt. Slowly add in the milk, whisking until the sugar is dissolved. After the sugar has dissolved, increase the heat to medium-high and bring to a boil. Then, reduce the heat to medium-low, whisking, and cooking for about 2 more minutes.
Finally, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the butter, peanut butter, and vanilla. Whisk everything together until you have a smooth and creamy mixture. Transfer the pudding into a bowl and cover the bowl with plastic wrap. Be sure to push down on the plastic wrap so it touches the top of the pudding. Let it chill in the refrigerator for at least an hour before serving.
How Long Does Peanut Butter Pudding Last?
Pudding needs to be stored in the refrigerator. It generally lasts about one week. I like to store it in individual containers so it’s easy to grab or take for lunch. You can also freeze pudding, but the consistency may change a little when you thaw it and eat it again. To thaw the pudding, let it thaw in the refrigerator rather than room temperature. Pudding will last up to three months in the freezer. Be sure to label and date the container.
