A peanutty crust and three deliciously different creamy layers form a tempting treat you'll be proud to prepare and share. I usually draw a crowd when I set out this mouthwatering torte. —Inez Orsburn, De Motte, Indiana

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 whole milk
  • 1 package (3.9 ounces) instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 1 package (3.4 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix
  • Grated semisweet chocolate, optional

Directions

  1. In a small bowl, cut butter into flour until crumbly; stir in the peanuts. Press onto the bottom of a greased 13x9-in. baking dish. Bake at 350° for 16-20 minutes or until golden brown. Cool completely on a wire rack.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
