Cool Whip Frosting

This recipe came from my sister Barb.  She makes the best cakes around.  She used traditional frosting but sometimes used this one also.

8 oz cool whip, thawed
3.5 oz package instant vanilla pudding mix
1 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla

Stir together pudding, milk, and vanilla until it looks like pudding and than fold in cool whip.

If you don't like vanilla you can always use chocolate pudding.   You could use what ever flavor you enjoy.
