A creamy, dreamy dessert with layers of cream cheese, pudding, and a crunchy pecan crust that will be a hit at any gathering.

  • Total Time: 35 minutes
  • Yield: 12 servings

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1/2 cup Margarine, melted
  • 1 cup Chopped pecans
  • 1 1/2 cups Graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 package (8 ounces) Cream cheese
  • 1 cup Confectioners’ sugar
  • 4 cups Frozen whipped topping, thawed
  • 1 package (3.9 ounces) Instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 1 package (3.4 ounces) Instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 3 cups Milk
  • 1 ounce Unsweetened chocolate, melted

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the melted margarine, chopped pecans, and graham cracker crumbs. Stir until fully blended.
  3. Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking pan to form a firm crust.
  4. Bake the crust for 20 minutes, or until lightly browned. Remove and let cool completely.
  5. Beat cream cheese and confectioners’ sugar until smooth. Fold in 1 cup of thawed whipped topping. Spread over cooled crust.
  6. Prepare chocolate and vanilla pudding with 3 cups milk as directed. Allow pudding to set. Spread pudding over cream cheese layer.
  7. Top with remaining whipped topping. Drizzle melted chocolate across the top for decoration.
  8. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving. Slice into squares. Store leftovers tightly covered in the freezer.

Notes

  • Ensure the crust cools completely before adding the cream cheese layer for best texture.
  • Substitute margarine with real butter for a richer flavor.
