Ingredients

1/2 cup cold butter, cubed
1 cup all-purpose flour
2/3 cup finely chopped dry roasted peanuts
FILLING:
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 carton (8 ounces) frozen whipped topping, thawed, divided
TOPPING:
2-3/4 cups cold milk
1 package (3.9 ounces) instant chocolate pudding mix
1 package (3.4 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix

Directions

In a small bowl, cut butter into flour until crumbly; stir in the peanuts. Press onto the bottom of a greased 13-in. x 9-in. baking dish. Bake at 350° for 16-20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely on a wire rack.
For filling, in a large bowl, beat the sugar, cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth. Fold in 1 cup whipped topping. Spread over crust.
For topping, in another bowl, whisk milk and pudding mixes for 2 minutes (mixture will be thick). Spread over filling. Top with remaining whipped topping. Sprinkle with chocolate if desired. Cover and refrigerate 4 hours or overnight. Yield: 20-24 servings.
