Next Best Thing To...

This is not a fancy dessert, but it's sooo good. I hadn't eaten it in years, and when I ate it this summer, I remembered how awesome it is. Try it.

1 C flour
1/2 C butter
1 C chopped pecans or walnuts
8 oz softened cream cheese
1 C powdered sugar
8 oz Cool Whip, divided
1 large pkg (6-serving size) instant vanilla
pudding mix
1 large pkg (6-serving size) instant chocolate
pudding mix
3 C cold milk
grated chocolate

Mix together flour, butter, and pecans until crumb-like. Press into bottom of 9" x 13" pan and bake at 350°F until golden brown, 15-20 minutes. Cool completely.

Combine the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and half the Cool Whip. Spread over the cooled crust. Then mix the pudding mixes with the milk and mix until smooth and thickened. Spread over the cream cheese layer. Spread the remaining Cool Whip on the top and garnish with grated chocolate. Keep refrigerated.
