Ingredients
 

Crust

  • 1 ½ cups self-rising flour
  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • ¾ cup salted butter melted

Peanut Butter Layer

  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • ½ cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 cups confectioners sugar

Chocolate Layer

  • 3 ½ cups milk
  • 2 3.9oz boxes instant chocolate pudding

Whipped Cream (or 12oz Cool Whip)

  • 2 cups heavy whipping cream
  • ⅔ cup confectioners sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Garnish

  • ½ cup chopped pecans
  • 2 tablespoon shaved or grated chocolate

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F. In a small bowl, mix together flour and pecans. Once combined, add butter and mix until it’s a cohesive ball. Press the dough in an even layer into a 13”x9” baking dish. Bake 20-22 minutes, or until lightly browned. Cool completely.
  • In another small bowl, with a hand mixer or whisk, blend the cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth. Add confectioners sugar and blend until combined well. Set aside.
  • In a separate small bowl, with a hand mixer or whisk, whip milk and pudding mixes until smooth and free of lumps. Set aside.
  • If making homemade whipped cream rather than ready-made frozen whipped cream, mix with a hand or stand mixer heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  • Once the crust has completely cooled, spread on top, in an even layer the peanut butter layer followed by the chocolate layer. Lastly, spread the whipped cream on top.
  • Garnish with pecans and grated or shaved chocolate.
