Puddings mixes (from Miserly moms's author)

A We love pudding, too. Making it yourself does save money, especially if you make a large batch of instant pudding, and make servings from that. Doing it this way makes each serving cost 15 cents as opposed to 25 cents from a store bought mix. I have included 4 flavors of pudding recipes.

      Vanilla Pudding Mix
      3 cups nonfat dry milk
      4 cups sugar
      1/2 tsp. nutmeg
      1 tsp. salt
      3 cups cornstarch
      1/2 tsp. vanilla extract

      Mix all except the vanilla, and store in an airtight container. To prepare, mix 1/2 cup of mix to 2 cups milk. Heat and stir constantly while boiling. Cool, then add 1/2 tsp. vanilla extract.

      Chocolate Pudding Mix
      2 1/2 cups nonfat dry milk
      5 cups sugar
      3 cups cornstarch
      1 tsp. salt
      2 1/2 cups unsweetened cocoa

      Mix and store in airtight container. To prepare, add 2/3 cup mix to 2 cups milk. Heat and stir constantly while boiling. Cool, then serve.

      Coconut Cream Pudding Mix
      3 cups nonfat dry milk
      4 cups sugar
      1 tsp. salt
      3 cups cornstarch
      1 1/2 cups shredded unsweetened coconut 1 tsp. coconut extract

      Mix the extract and the shredded coconut in a small bowl until the extract is absorbed. Add the coconut to the other ingredients and store  in airtight container. To prepare, add 2/3 cup mix to 2 cups milk. Heat and stir constantly while boiling. Cool, then serve.

      2 cups nonfat dry milk
      5 cups brown sugar, packed
      1 tsp. salt
