Chocolate Dream Dessert

TOTAL TIME: Prep: 20 min. Bake: 15 min. + chilling YIELD: 12-15 servings.
I've been married 37 years and have four grandchildren, and this is our all-time favorite dessert. Its chocolate flavor is subtle but delicious. The last time I made it, my brother said, "This has got to be the best dessert there is!" See if you agree!

Ingredients

  • CRUST:
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup finely chopped pecans

  • 1 package (3.9 ounces) instant chocolate pudding mix
  • 3 cups cold whole milk
  • 1 chocolate bar, grated

Directions

  • 1. In a bowl, combine the flour and pecans; cut in butter until mixture resembles fine crumbs. Press into a 13x9-in. baking pan.
