Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 16 sheets Graham crackers
- 2 packages Instant vanilla pudding mix
- 4 cups Milk
- 0.5 cups Creamy peanut butter
- 8 ounces Whipped topping (thawed)
- 1 cup Semisweet chocolate chips
- 0.5 cups Heavy cream
Instructions
Prepare a 9x13-inch baking dish by lightly greasing it or lining it with parchment paper for easy removal.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the instant vanilla pudding mix and milk until smooth and thickened, about 2 minutes.
Stir in the peanut butter until fully incorporated, then gently fold in the whipped topping to create a light, creamy filling.
Place a single layer of graham cracker sheets on the bottom of the prepared baking dish, breaking them as needed to fit.
Spread half of the peanut butter pudding mixture evenly over the graham crackers.
Add another layer of graham crackers on top of the pudding mixture, then spread the remaining pudding mixture over this layer.
Top with a final layer of graham crackers to form the dessert's 'crust'.
To make the chocolate topping, heat the heavy cream in a small saucepan over medium heat until it just begins to simmer. Remove from heat and pour it over the semisweet chocolate chips in a heatproof bowl.
Let the chocolate and cream sit for 2-3 minutes, then whisk until smooth and glossy.
Pour the chocolate topping evenly over the top layer of graham crackers, using a spatula to spread it if needed.
Refrigerate the dessert for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the layers to soften and meld together.
Slice into squares and serve chilled. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
