(pudding mix was mixed with whip cream and a small can of crushed pineapple *** you did not make pudding with it***) It had mini marshmallows, whip cream, peanuts, Apples chopped up with skin on. It was very good. I tried this one, but I am diabetic and this version has a great deal more carbs. Also there are over 30 types of apple that have tartness to them Granny Smith is not the only one, and actually maybe not the best one to always go to. Be creative with apple choices. The cookbook was written in the late 50s and personally I like mixing the pudding in the whipped cream and pineapple. Seems to come out better than actually making pudding.","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":5,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2024-11-07","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"slfish68"},"reviewBody":"
