Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pkg pecan sandies, crushed (save 3 - 4 for topping)
1 - 1 1/4 stick butter, softened
8 oz cream cheese, softened
1 c powdered sugar
1 c cool whip
2 box instant lemon pudding
3 c milk
1 1/2 - 2 c cool whip

Steps:

  • 1. Crush Pecan Sandies with a rolling pin; add softened butter starting with one stick and if needed, add a little more; press into the bottom of a 9 x 13" ungreased pan. Bake at 350 degrees for 12 - 15 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool
  • 2. Mix 8 oz. cream cheese, one cup powdered sugar until well blended; fold in one cup of Cool Whip and mix well. Spread over cooled crust. Mix Lemon Instant Pudding with three cups of milk and refrigerate until it begins to set up. Spread this over the cream cheese mixture.
  • 3. Spread 1 1/2 - 2 cups Cool Whip over the Lemon Pudding mixture. Crush the 3 - 4 Pecan Sandies left from the package and sprinkle over the Cool Whip. Refrigerate several hours or overnight. Variations: Use Butterscotch, Pistachio, Chocolate, or Vanilla pudding instead of the Lemon; the rest of the recipe is the same. ENJOY

This dessert is so easy to make and it always turns out perfectly. I love that I can use store-bought ingredients to make it. It's also a great way to use up leftover egg yolks.

I'm not a huge fan of lemon desserts, but this one was actually really good! The crust was the perfect balance of sweet and crumbly, and the lemon filling was tart and refreshing. I would definitely recommend this recipe.

This was a great dessert to make with my kids. They loved helping me mix the ingredients and pour the batter into the pan. The finished product was delicious and we all enjoyed it.

This dessert is a bit too tart for my taste, but I think it would be perfect with a little less lemon juice. I also found the crust to be a bit dry. Overall, it's a good dessert, but I would make a few changes next time.

This 4-layer lemon dessert is a delightful treat! The pecan sandies crust adds a nice nutty flavor and the lemon filling is perfectly tart and creamy. I topped it off with whipped cream and fresh berries for an extra special touch.
