For my best festive menu, I make this famous dessert, which my children gobble up immediately. Itâs a hit at every gathering! Ingredients:
1-1/4 cups biscuit/baking mix |
1/2 cup chopped walnuts |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
3 tablespoons cold butter |
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened |
1 cup plus 1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar, divided |
1 cup heavy whipping cream, whipped, divided |
2-1/2 cups cold milk |
2 packages (3.4 ounces each) instant pistachio pudding mix |
chocolate curls, optional |
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the biscuit mix, walnuts and brown sugar. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. 2. Press into an ungreased 13-in. x 9-in. baking pan. Bake at 375° for 10-12 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack. 3. In a small bowl, beat cream cheese and 1 cup confectioners' sugar until fluffy. Fold in half of the whipped cream; spread over crust. Stir remaining confectioners' sugar into remaining whipped cream; refrigerate until serving. 4. In another bowl, whisk milk and pudding mixes for 2 minutes. Let stand for 2 minutes or until soft-set. Spread over cream cheese layer. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving. 5. Garnish with sweetened whipped cream and, if desired, chocolate curls. Yield: 15 servings. |
