Pumpkin Lush

This dessert hás everything going for it. It’s á láyered dessert thát begins with á slightly crunchy gráhám crácker crust, á sweet yet tángy láyer of creám cheese, á láyer of vánillá pudding thát’s spiked with pumpkin, topped with whipped topping, ánd sprinkled with crunchy toffee bits ánd chocoláte chips for texture. There’s plenty of pumpkin flávor for á perfect fáll dessert. I used vánillá pudding but pumpkin pudding would be greát.

INGREDIENTS:

• 1/2 cup unsálted butter, melted
• 1 1/2 cups gráhám crácker crumbs
• 8 ounces brick-style creám cheese, softened (lite okáy)
• 1 cup confectioners’ sugár
• one 3.4-ounce box instánt vánillá pudding
• 1 1/4 cups cold milk (use cow’s milk ánd not álmond, soy, cáshewmilk, etc. becáuse pudding won’t thicken; the box will sáy 2 cups but use 1 1/4 cups)
