Chocolate Quad

   This dessert has been in my family for so many years. My grandmother use to make it every year for christmas. And for a few years now this tradition has been mine to make  for christmas and other family functions. Its very easy and super delicious. This was our good friday treat after our yummy boiled crawfish.

What you will Need:

  • 1 cup flour
  • 1cup pecans chopped
  • 1 stick butter
  • 8oz cream cheese softened 
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 3 packages instant chocolate pudding mix (I like to use devils food)
  • 3 cups cold milk
  • 2 containers cool whip
    Softened butter and combine with flour to make a dough. I usually add a few sprinkles of water to help it stick together. Add nuts and press into baking dish. Bake at 350 degrees for 15-20 minutes or until lightly brown. Let cool completely (I normally put it in ice box to help cool faster)
    In a mixing bowl combine cream cheese and 1 cup powdered sugar. Cream until fluffy. Add 1 container cool whip, mix and spoon onto cooled crust.
    Combine 3 packages pudding mix with 3 cups cold milk, combine until thick and spoon on top of cream cheese mixture. Top with extra cool whip and chill for 1- 2 hours before serving.
