Peanut Butter Chocolate Pudding Cake
This is a great dessert to bring to your next cookout, and it is affordable, quick (easy) and delicious, which makes it a WIN!! Enjoy!
Ingredients:
Crust:
- 1 stick of butter, softened
- 1 cup of flour
- 2/3 cup chopped peanuts
Peanut Butter layer:
- 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter
- 8oz. cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup confectionary sugar
- 8 oz. tub of Cool Whip
Chocolate layer:
- 1 small package of vanilla instant pudding
- 1 small package of chocolate instant pudding
- 2 3/4 cup milk
Topping:
- 8 oz. tub of Cool Whip
- Chocolate shavings
Directions:
- Prepare the crust. Combine with a fork the butter, flour, and chopped peanuts (put them through the food processor to finely chop). Once combined, press into the bottom of a greased 9″x13″ cake pan. Bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 18-20 minutes, until it just begins to brown. Set aside to cool while you prepare the next layer.
- Cream together the peanut butter, cream cheese, and confectioner’s sugar. Then gently fold in the 8oz Cool Whip. Spread over cooled crust.
- Combine both pudding mixes and milk. Beat with a mixer until firm. Gently spread over the peanut butter layer. Refrigerate until firm.
- Once the last pudding layer is firm, finish the cake off with a layer of Cool Whip and chocolate shavings. I use a Hershey bar and a vegetable peeler to make these curls. You could also top with more crushed peanuts.
- Keep refrigerated until you’re ready to eat. Refrigerate leftovers and keep covered.
