Ingredients
1 Cup All-Purpose Flour
1/2 Cup Unsalted Butter, melted
1 Cup Chopped Pecans
8 Ounces Cream Cheese, softened
1 Cup Powdered Sugar, sifted
2 Small Boxes Instant Vanilla Pudding mix
4 Cups Whole Milk
8 Ounces Whipped Topping, thawed
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
Combine flour, melted butter, and chopped pecans in a medium bowl until a crumbly dough forms.
Press the mixture evenly into the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking pan.
Bake for 20 minutes until lightly golden brown, then allow the crust to cool completely.
In a bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth; spread evenly over the cooled crust.
Whisk the vanilla pudding mix with milk until thickened; spread this layer over the cream cheese mixture.
Top with an even layer of the thawed whipped topping.
Refrigerate the dessert for at least 6 hours before slicing and serving.
Notes
Letting the dessert chill for at least six hours is essential for the flavors to meld and the layers to set properly for clean slicing. Ensure the cream cheese is fully at room temperature to avoid lumps in the filling.
