Recipe for Four Layer Delight dessert…

HI everyone,
Well, it’s 11:29p.m. and I am just now getting to my post for tomorrow.
Hanna emailed me this morning and asked if I could share the recipe for the Four Layer Delight I showed you yesterday… I told her I would… so here it is.

It was a big hit at the Staff Christmas party and several asked for the recipe. One of the guys even wants it for his birthday in January.
It looks like a long complicated recipe, but it’s not hard at all… just take it layer by layer and it’s a snap.

This recipe has been around for probably 50 years at least. I’ve been making it for about 40 years.. You can find it on Pinterest in all kinds of vaiations.

It doesn’t have to be Chocolate… it can be made with ANY kind of instant pudding… butterscotch, pistachio (that’s very yummy), lemon, banana, anything you like!

I made two 9 x 13 pans of it and this is what we have left… (my hubby really had too much!)
Here is a messy view of what the leftover portion looked like.

Four Layer Chocolate Delight

ALL Ingredients
1-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1-1/2 sticks butter, melted (use real butter for the flakiest crust)
1/2 cup pecans, finely chopped
8 oz cream cheese (softened)
1 cup powdered sugar
2 small containers Cool Whip (thawed out)
2 small boxes (3 oz each) instant chocolate pudding mix (or your favorite)
3 cups milk

Directions
Layer 1
1-1/2 cups flour
1-1/2 stick butter (melted)
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
Mix together and press into a buttered 9×13-inch pan.
Bake 325 degrees for 15 minutes until light brown and let cool.

Layer 2
8 oz cream cheese (softened)
1 cup powdered sugar
1 small container of Cool Whip (thawed out)
Using a mixer, combine and spread on top of cooled crust.
Chill this layer while you make the chocolate pudding.

Layer 3
2 small boxes instant chocolate pudding
3 cups milk
Mix together and chill. When it’s thick carefully spread on the 2nd layer.
(I usually put the pudding in globs and spread it out evenly with the back of a spoon.)

Layer 4
Top with second tub of Cool Whip. Garnish with chopped pecans and slivers shaved from a chocolate bar.
Chill before serving.

YUMMY!

Well, there was NO sewing involved in today’s post, but maybe there will be tomorrow!
I need some suggestions for shoes… I do have silver leather, but boots, mary janes, slip-on’s, etc… ideas?

Thanks everyone,
See you tomorrow,
Blessings, Jeanne
