Thanks for the recipe which I have but had forgotten about. It's my kids favorite dessert and since they are both coming to visit this weekend I'll be making it for them. They will be so pleased!

I've had similar chocolate treats before so it's no surprise to anyone around here that I'd turn to this recipe for A GREAT CHOCOLATE FIX! And, this is one of those times when I did the whole garnish bit ~ I chopped up some cherries & toasted pecans & then included some dark chocolate shavings for that little extra 'healthy' boost (At least I keep telling myself about the healthy aspect of it all)!

We used to call this "Chocolate Yum Yum" and I lost the recipe. I was so happy to find it here! Gretchen's 4 Layer is the same recipe and it's absolutely wonderful! You'll be tempted to eat it all in one sitting! An old favorite I'm so happy to find again! Thanks for posting.

To die for! However, I used 1 chocolate and 1 vanilla pudding mix. It was still good! Thanks for posting!
