Small Changes Add Up

Small ingredient substitutions, such as PHILADELPHIA Neufchatel Cheese, COOL WHIP LITE Whipped Topping and JELL-O Chocolate Flavor Sugar Free Fat Free Instant Pudding, result in a savings of 50 calories and 3g of total fat, including 2g of sat fat, per serving when compared to a traditional recipe.

How to Thaw COOL WHIP Whipped Topping

The best way to thaw frozen COOL WHIP Whipped Topping is in its container in the refrigerator. Depending on the size tub you have, the thawing time varies. Recommended thawing times are: 8-oz. tub - 4 hours; 12-oz. tub - 5 hours; 16-oz. tub - 6 hours. We DO NOT recommend thawing COOL WHIP Whipped Topping in the microwave.

Size Wise

A serving of this sweet treat goes a long way on chocolate flavor.
