My best friend Glynda..*aint that cute...we share the same name* sent me this wonderful, easy dessert. It combines some of my kids favortie "food groups", mainly cool whip, grahmn crackers...and of course ..CHOCOLATE..
INGREDIENTS:
1 box graham crackers
2 boxes(small) instant vanilla pudding
1 cup powdered sugar
3 cups milk
1 8-oz. container cool whip
1 can light chocolate icing
Line bottom of a 9 by 13 inch pan with graham crackers (break crackers to fit the bottom of the pan, if needed). Mix pudding with 3 cups milk and the powdered sugar. Beat about 2 minutes, stir in cool whip and spread half the pudding mixture over the cracker layer. Make another layer of crackers, and pour remaining pudding mixture over the top. Top this layer with more crackers and spread chocolate icing over the whole thing!! Refrigerate for several hours before serving.
INGREDIENTS:
40 Soda Crackers
1 Cup butter (most insist on butter, not margarine)
1 Cup Brown Sugar
6-12 Ounces Chocolate Chips,depending on preference
1 Cup Chopped Nuts (optional)
(Roasted Honey Nuts are great with this recipe)
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Line a jellyroll pan or cookie sheet with aluminum foil and
spray with a non-stick vegetable/butter spray. Place soda acrackers on pan in a single layer.
Combine butter and brown sugar in a saucepan, bring to a boil
and boil for 3 minutes.
Pour mixture over crackers, spread evenly. Bake for 5 minutes.
Crackers will float. Remove from oven and while warm sprinkle with chocolate chips, then spread evenly. Sprinkle with nuts if desired. Cut while warm.
Note: Returning the candy/crackers to the oven (which has been
turned off) for 2-3 minutes after sprinkling with chocolate chips to melt the chocolate might be needed
Absolutely suprisingly delicious!
