Few things in life are as good as chocolate. Although chicken soup is something you might turn to if you’re feeling under the weather, chocolate can work its own magic! The following pecan chocolate dessert is creamy and light. It’s made with pecans, two flavors of instant pudding, whipped cream, powdered sugar, and more. It’s light and fluffy without being too sinful or indulgent.
This dessert is suitable if you’re looking for something different to enjoy after dinner. The kids will love it just as much as the grownups. It’s tweak-able too, and you can use different pudding mix flavors if you want, as long as they are the instant kind. There are 3 layers in this chocoholic dessert. First you have a tasty crust and then you have a chocolate layer in the middle. Finishing this recipe to perfection is a sweet and creamy topping. All in all, every bite will be a delight.
This dessert is amazing from the crunchy, creamy nut topping, through the chocolate layer down to the tasty, crunchy crust. It’s great for a picnic or potluck.
