Grandma Jo called this her “minute dessert” because she could mix it up fast and let the freezer do the rest.

For picky eaters who aren’t sure about strawberries, you can swap in frozen raspberries or even mini chocolate chips for a double-chocolate version. If your family prefers a lighter chocolate flavor, use half a box of pudding mix and add a handful of extra berries. To make it a little more grown-up for a potluck, stir in 1–2 tablespoons of mini marshmallows or chopped nuts for texture. You can also use sugar-free pudding mix and light whipped topping if you’re watching sugar, just know the texture may be slightly softer. For individual servings, divide the mixture into small clear cups or ramekins before freezing so kids can grab their own. If your freezer runs very cold and the dessert freezes rock hard, just let it rest on the counter a bit longer or move it to the fridge 20–30 minutes before serving to get those soft peaks and easy scoops Grandma Jo loved.
