Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (180°C).

  3. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking pan.
  4. Bake for 15-20 minutes or until lightly browned. Remove from oven and let cool completely.
  5. While crust cools, beat cream cheese and icing sugar together until smooth.
  6. Fold in 1 cup of thawed Cool Whip into the cream cheese mixture.
  7. Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled crust.
  8. In a large bowl, whisk both pudding mixes with milk for 2 minutes or until thickened.
  9. Let pudding stand for 5 minutes to thicken further, then gently fold in the remaining 3 cups of Cool Whip.
  10. Pour the pudding mixture over the cream cheese layer and spread evenly.
  11. Drizzle melted chocolate over the top and use a knife to create a swirl pattern.
  12. Cover tightly and freeze for at least 4 hours or overnight before serving.

Note

Storage: This dessert freezes well. Keep tightly covered in the freezer for up to 1 month. Cut and serve directly from the freezer.

Substitutions: You can substitute butter for margarine in the crust. Use vanilla or chocolate pudding mix exclusively if you prefer a single flavor profile.

Tips: Ensure the crust is completely cool before adding the cream cheese layer to prevent it from becoming soggy. For a richer flavor, add a tablespoon of vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture.
