Ingredients
- 1 cup of crushed graham crackers
- 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, melted
- 1 package (8 oz) of cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup of powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 1 cup of whipped cream
- 1 cup of chocolate pudding (prepared)
- 1/2 cup of chocolate shavings or cocoa powder for garnish
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the crushed graham crackers and melted butter. Stir until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×9 inch dish to form the base.
- In a separate bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined. Gently fold in the whipped cream until no streaks remain.
- Evenly spread the cream mixture over the prepared graham cracker base. Use a spatula to smooth the top, ensuring it is level.
- Pour the prepared chocolate pudding over the cream layer. Spread it out gently with a spatula or the back of a spoon for an even layer.
- Sprinkle chocolate shavings or cocoa powder on top for garnish. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 120 minutes, allowing the layers to set.
- Slice into squares and serve chilled. Enjoy this decadent dessert with friends and family!
Notes
Ensure the cream cheese is softened to room temperature for easy mixing. This dessert is ideal for making ahead of time as it tastes better the next day.
