Steps:
- Combine Kool-aid packet, granulated sugar, and cornstarch in a 1 quart sauce pan. Mix well.
- Add two cups cold water and bring to a boil over medium high heat. Stir constantly.
- As mixture is getting close to coming to a boil it will begin to slightly thicken.
- Once mixture is boiling, turn the heat down to medium or medium low and let it continue to boil (stirring constantly) for 1 minute.
- Remove from heat and allow to cool completely before adding fruit. If you do not plan to add fruit for a cake topping and want to eat it like pudding, pour danish dessert into prepared dishes and let cool.
- I prefer to let mine cool in the fridge before adding the fruit.
- Enjoy!
