Desserts - Pies and TartsCHOCOLATE FLUFF
FOR THE CRUST:
1 cup flour
1/3 cup butter (5 1/3 tablespoons), melted
1/2 cup chopped pecans
FOR THE FILLING:
3/4 cup heavy (whipping) cream, divided use
4 ounces cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sugar
3 cups prepared chocolate pudding (packaged or made from mix)
1/2 cup chocolate shavings
TO MAKE THE CRUST:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
Mix the flour and butter together until they are the consistency of dough. Pat evenly into the bottom of a 13-by-9-inch baking pan. Press the pecans into the crust.
Bake until light golden, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let the crust cool completely.
WHEN THE CRUST IS NEARLY COOLED MAKE THE FILLING:
Whip the whipping cream until soft peaks form. Set aside.
Beat the cream cheese and the sugar in a large bowl until thoroughly combined. Gently fold in half the whipped cream.
Spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled crust. Pour the chocolate pudding over the cream-cheese mixture. Spread the remaining whipped cream over the chocolate layer and top all with the chocolate shavings.
Refrigerate until chilled, at least 1 hour.
Cut into squares to serve.
