Oh my! Heavenly Dessert!!

I made this dessert for Easter dinner today and let me tell you, it was AWESOME!!!! OMG!!! So good! And it was so incredibly simple to make.

You first mix 1 1/2 cups of graham cracker crumbs with 1/4 cup of sugar and 6 tbsp. of butter.

Then just press firmly in the bottom 13x9 baking dish.

Next, beat 2 packages (8oz.) of cream cheese with 1/4 cup of sugar and 1/4 cup of milk until well blended. Spread this mixture over the graham cracker crumb crust. It may lift the crust a bit and so I found out that if you spray some Pam on your spreader it helps a lot.

Next mix 2 3/4 cups of milk with 2 packages of lemon pudding. Pour over the cream cheese mixture. And let that sit for 5 minutes.

After the five minutes, spread some strawberry Cool Whip over top. It can be hard to find the strawberry Cool Whip at the grocery store and so if you cannot find it, I found mixing frozen strawberries with regular Cool Whip works well. (I can usually only find the strawberry Cool Whip around Christmas time.)

That's it. It is so simple. It is really pretty with all the layers and the colors. It is the perfect springy or summer dessert! And it isn't really heavy, really light and refreshing.

  1. Hey Nina! I am sorry I haven't gotten to you earlier but tomorrow I am finishing all my sewing orders. Before I make them I am contacting everyone to see if they are still wanted. Let me know if you still want a jumper for your niece "D" and what size. It won't be the same fabric but I promise it will be just as cute. Email me as soon as you get this so I will know. Thanks.

  2. That looks good. My grandma used to make that. She also made it with chocolate.

    Have you started using your new camera yet? I'm excited for you!
