Ingredients
Scale
Pretzel Crust:
- 8 oz pretzels, crushed, plus additional for topping if desired
- 4 tbsp butter, melted
Peanut Butter Layer:
- 16 oz cream cheese, room temperature
- 5.9 oz instant chocolate pudding
- 2 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup creamy peanut butter, plus a little additional for topping if desired
- 8 oz whipped topping
Chocolate Pudding:
- 2 1/2 Cup Milk
Instructions
- Prepare the Pretzel Crust: Crush the pretzels into small pieces. Melt the butter in the microwave. In a bowl, combine the crushed pretzels and melted butter. Spread the mixture evenly in the bottom of a 7×10-inch baking dish, pressing down to form a solid crust.
- Make the Peanut Butter Layer: In a mixing bowl, combine the room temperature cream cheese, powdered sugar, and creamy peanut butter. Mix until smooth and creamy. Spread the peanut butter mixture evenly over the pretzel crust.
- Prepare the Chocolate Pudding: Follow the directions on the pudding package, but reduce the milk by ½ cup. For example, if using JELLO chocolate instant pudding (5.9 oz), use 2 ½ cups of milk instead of the full amount (typically 3 cups). Whisk until thickened. If using dairy-free milk, it’s best to use a hand mixer on high speed to help the pudding set properly and thicken more effectively. Once thickened, pour the pudding evenly over the cream cheese and peanut butter layer, smoothing it out.
- Add the Whipped Topping: Spread the whipped topping over the pudding layer, smoothing it to cover the entire surface of the dessert.
- Chill & Serve: Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow all layers to set properly. Slice and serve. Enjoy!
