This recipe is so stupidly fast and easy you'd be stupid not to make it just for that fact. Not that I think you're stupid or anything. But it really is super easy and you don't have to heat up your oven which is another reason why I made it. It's been getting effin' hot here and I am avoiding the oven. I've already cut 3 pairs of my jeans into shorts...
Anyway, I've seen this recipe on Allrecipes a lot and have been thinking about making it for a while. So I finally did the other day. Seriously, so easy! Did i tell you how it's so fast and easy to make? I didn't know if I mentioned it or not...
Ok, here's what you'll need...
1/2 cup heave whipping cream
1 3.5 oz pkg. instant vanilla pudding mix (I used Trader Joes because I'm cool like that)
1 1/2 cups milk
1/2 box of graham crackers
chocolate frosting:
1/4 cup softened butter
1 cup powdered sugar
1/4 cup cocoa
1/8 teaspoon vanilla
2-3 tablespoons milk
First things first, whip cream til stiff peaks form. Fold in pudding mix and milk. Set aside. In an 8x8 baking dish, arrange graham crackers in a single layer. Spread with half the pudding mixture, then top with another layer of graham crackers. Spread the other half of the pudding mixture on top, then put one final layer or graham crackers. Mix chocolate frosting ingredients thoroughly. Spread a layer of frosting over the entire thing. Chill.
Now, for me, the longer you chill this the better. I tried it after a few hours and thought it was just ok. i really think this should chill overnight at the least.
This isn't a fancy dessert. It's an easy, eat out of the pan by yourself with a spoon kind of dessert. Well, it was for me anyway....

Damn, I've got everything but the heavy whipping cream. And I almost bought some yesterday! Grrrrr. :( Well, I'm makin' it soon. (And don't rub it in about your nice, warm weather - we still have the damned furnace on here!!)
Haha Barb! Well it's going to start getting uncomfortably hot here and I'm not looking forward to it! You can use 1/2 tub of cool whip if you have that instead, I just like the real whipped cream!
That looks good! I haven't made anything like that yet!
That does look good! But no, I will not make it!! :-P Not cause I don't want to, or cause I'm stupid, but because you told me to. So there. ;)
And, you better not cut too many pairs of jeans!! Cause then when you need your jeans, you're going to be whining that you don't have any cause you cut them into shorts. Yeah, that's right, I know.
