Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prepare the chocolate pudding according to the package instructions by mixing the chocolate pudding mix with 2 cups of cold milk. Whisk until thickened, about 2 minutes. In a separate bowl, repeat the process with the mint pudding mix and 2 cups of cold milk. Allow both puddings to set for about 5 minutes until creamy.
  2. Layer the chocolate pudding at the bottom of each clear cup or dessert glass, smoothing it evenly. Follow with an equally portioned layer of the mint pudding, ensuring the colors remain distinct.
  3. Chill the pudding cups in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes until they firm up and the layers hold their shape.
  4. Before serving, add a dollop of whipped cream on top of each cup and sprinkle with chocolate shavings or mint candies for festive flair.
