It was definitely wayyy too sweet for me. I could only eat a spoonful. Next time I will cut back on the sugar. Read More

I've made this recipe several times over the years. But last night, I doubled the recipe for a work function and was confident that there would be a little left over to bring home (because the dish was HUGE). I thought wrong! These people scraped the bottom of the pan and there was NOTHING left! They absolutely loved it!!!! I'm not sure I've ever had so many compliments over a recipe!!!! As it turns out, our local grocery store actually had French vanilla pudding in stock, which is rare, so I made it with the French vanilla pudding this time. But I've made it with regular vanilla pudding in the past and it has been just as good. Enjoy!!!!! Read More

Just made it with a few additions. Added 1 cup of coconut and used 1 bag of Chocolate filed Oreos for the base and 1/2 bag of the double stuffed Oreos for the top. Also blended up some pecans into the mix of cream cheese/butter/sugar. And finally topped it off with chocolate fudge and caramel fudge on top. drizzled across the grand finale. My family enjoys it so much more than the regular recipe and well worth it. OUTSTANDING DESSERT! Read More
