Advise
For a richer flavor, consider substituting milk with whole milk or cream. You can also add a splash of vanilla extract to enhance the vanilla flavor, making it even more aromatic. For those with dietary restrictions, this pudding mix can be made with plant-based milks (like almond or oat milk), although the texture may vary slightly.
