Ingredients
Scale
- 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup whipped topping
- 2 cups chocolate pudding (instant or pre-made)
- 1 cup whipped topping
- 2 tablespoons crushed peanuts or mini chocolate chips (optional)
Instructions
- Combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter in a mixing bowl until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press it firmly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish to form an even layer. Chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
- In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth using a hand mixer. Add peanut butter and powdered sugar, mixing until fully combined. Fold in 1 cup of whipped topping using a spatula until creamy. Spread this mixture evenly over the chilled crust.
- Spread the chocolate pudding evenly over the peanut butter layer. Use the back of a spoon to smooth it out for even coverage.
- Spread the remaining whipped topping over the pudding layer. Add crushed peanuts or mini chocolate chips for garnish, if desired.
- Cover the dessert with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (overnight is even better) to let the layers set. Slice into squares and serve cold.
Notes
[‘Make sure cream cheese is softened for easier blending.’, ‘Chill each layer briefly before adding the next for cleaner layers.’, ‘Use a sharp knife and wipe it clean between cuts for perfect slices.’, “Add a splash of milk to loosen the peanut butter layer if it’s too thick.”]
