Dessert

Recipe #72389 | 20 min | 10 min prep | add private note

I got this surprisingly yummy recipe from a former co-worker who informed me that this is called, simply, DESSERT. It's very adaptable. I've made it with butterscotch pudding and crushed Heath Bar and, for Christmas last year, chocolate pudding and crushed green and white striped spearmint candies. Could not be easier, and people seem to universally like it, despite themselves.

My husband made this last night for church today. Everyone loved it. They loved it so much we didn't get to try it. I'll have to make one for home I guess. Thanks for a well received and easy to make dessert.

    My MIL sent me this recipe many years ago and called it Butterscotch Spectacular. Sounds so much better than Dessert, dont you think? It's always good and gooey and yummy, no matter where I take it or what flavor I use.

    I make this recipe by adding chopped pecans to the crust before baking. I use chocolate pudding. We call it sex in a pan because it is so-o-o good!
