Time 45m

Yield 24 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

FOR THE SALTED PECAN CRUST:
1 1/2 c. All-purpose Flour
1/2 c. Packed Brown Sugar
3/4 tsp. Kosher Salt
1/3 c. Finely Chopped Pecans
9 tbsp. Cold Unsalted Butter
FOR THE CREAM CHEESE LAYER:
12 oz. weight Cream Cheese, Softened
1 1/2 c. Powdered Sugar
12 oz. weight Cool Whip, Divided (1 1/2 Cups For Cream Cheese Layer, Remaining For Cool Whip Layer)
FOR THE CHOCOLATE PUDDING LAYER:
2 boxes (3.9 Oz. Size) Chocolate Fudge Instant Pudding & Pie Filling
4 c. Cold Whole Milk
FOR THE COOL WHIP LAYER:
Remaining Cool Whip From Cream Cheese Layer
2 oz. weight Shaved Dark Chocolate From A Bar

Steps:

  • For the salted pecan crust:Preheat oven to 325° F.In a medium bowl, combine flour, brown sugar, salt, and pecans. Cut in butter with a rigid pastry cutter or a fork until crumbly. Press mixture evenly onto bottom of 9 x 13 inch pan. Bake for 18-20 minutes, or until crust is set and slightly browned. It should smell nice and toasty, buttery and nutty. Remove to wire rack to cool completely.For the cream cheese layer:With a blender, whip cream cheese and powdered sugar until completely smooth. With a rubber spatula, fold in 1-1/2 cups of Cool Whip from the 12-ounce container until combined. Spread mixture onto cooled crust. Refrigerate while preparing the next layer.For the chocolate pudding layer:In a medium bowl, whisk pudding with milk for 2 minutes. Pudding will become more and more thick as you whisk. Spread pudding evenly over cream cheese layer.For the Cool Whip layer:Evenly spread remaining Cool Whip from the 12-ounce container over chocolate pudding layer. Sprinkle with shaved chocolate. (I use a vegetable peeler, running it down the sides of a chocolate bar.) Refrigerate for 4 to 6 hours or overnight before serving.This dessert can easily be made the day prior to serving. I actually prefer the overnight refrigeration, as it allows the dessert to chill thoroughly and firm up. Always serve this dessert chilled.

Categories     Low Protein

Time 45m

Yield 1 chocolate dessert, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup chopped pecans
1 cup flour
1/2 cup butter, softened
8 ounces cream cheese
1 cup powdered sugar
1 cup Cool Whip
2 tablespoons Cool Whip
2 (3 1/2 ounce) packages instant chocolate pudding mix
3 cups milk
Cool Whip, for topping
nuts, for topping

Steps:

  • 1st layer.
  • Mix chopped pecans, flour, and softened butter.
  • Put in 9x13 inch pan.

  • 3rd layer.
  • Mix chocolate pudding with milk. Beat for 2 minutes.
  • Refrigerate 10 minutes.
  • Spread on top of other layers.
  • Top with cool whip, and sprinkle with nuts on top.

Tips:

  • Make sure to use full-fat milk for the pudding. This will give it a richer, creamier texture.
  • If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can check to see if the sugar syrup is ready by dropping a small amount into a bowl of cold water. If it forms a soft ball, it's ready.
  • Be careful not to overbeat the egg whites. Overbeaten egg whites will be dry and crumbly.
  • When layering the dessert, be sure to start with a layer of pudding. This will prevent the cookies from becoming soggy.
  • Chill the dessert for at least 4 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the dessert to firm up.

Conclusion:
