Hey Sweet Friends!🥰 If you enjoyed this recipes, you will LOVE these..... th-cam.com/play/PLEuGC2cTqc0zvs4EO_csB6J24KbN9c4o4.html
You must try our version, it is a whole other experience!
When we made this it was called:
"7 Layer Chocolate Delight"
... and it was Delicious, (Because we made it with Homemade Pudding or the Jello Pudding that must be cooked). (... and I make and have Homemade Vanilla Extract, Vanilla Beans from Madagascar)
🚫 No Instant Pudding was allowed in our House, lol, (My Parents were Professionals, Owned Restaurants all ther lives.)
The pecan crust
1) The Cream Cheese layer,
2) The French Vanilla Pudding layer
3) A layer of Whipped Cream
4) The Chocolate Pudding layer
5) another layer of Cream Cheese
6) a layer of either regular Vanilla or Chocolate Pudding
7) Layer of Whipped Cream
Sprinkle top with Slivered Almonds, or Shaved Dark Chocolate, or both ...
🏅 It takes longer but there is no comparison, I've tasted the Instant version and it is not close.
🔑 We use plastic wrap over the pudding to prevent the skin that forms.
🔑 It's best to prepare the puddings in the morning or a day ahead, and then it
goes Quick
Chill 3 hrs minimum before serving.
You must; Treat Yourself to this Original Version and ENJOY!!!

Melt the Butter, and the crust goes way easier.
Boy does this bring back memories. My mom would make this as a summer dessert for picnics and barbecues. People absolutely LOVED this.
It can also be made gluten-free (substitute the flour with a 1:1 GF flour) and plant-based (substitute the dairy ingredients with non-dairy ingredients, and that includes using a plant-based pudding mix). I’ve also seen this recipe using pretzels (regular or gluten free) instead of nuts for people allergic to nuts, and it was still good.
I’m so happy., my mom made this and we called it four layer stuff and I can’t believe it.. you have the same recipe!
Yes please!! Thanks for joining in 😍
YOU SAVES ME!!!! I was really worried about my crust. It kept falling apart until I googled it and found your video! The plastic wrap did the trick! THANK YOU!!!
Put butterfingers crushed up on top. Yummy.
This makes a beautiful dessert. Looks so yummy! Thanks for sharing, Valerie. 🙂🤗
This looks so lovely! Thank you for sharing. A beautiful 'Delight' :)
I made this with French vanilla pudding with tablespoon of dry instant coffee added! Was very good.
Yay! I had forgotten all about this family favorite. So happy I happened upon your video. I'm going to make this for the family on Sunday!
Looks so good and refreshing in this heat! Thank you for sharing! Looking forward to working with you on the next collab!
OMG you just brought back a great memory for me Valerie!!! My Grandma made this for us growing up and I LOVE LOVED It!! I literally have not had in 30 years!! Probably because I was never quite sure How she made it! Now I know!
Yum that looks amazing 🤤 I know my family would love this!!
I am drooling just looking at this dessert girl! Thanks so much for sharing! It was so much fun collabing with you 💕
Layer Dessert.👌🏻💯🍰
Hi, Valerie!
Wow, this chocolate delight looks great! The effect of moving your hand over the pecan bowl was nice!
Pushing down the crust with some plastic film was a good idea!
Like I said, that turned out great. The bit of chopped up chocolate bar on top was perfect. Thanks for sharing!
Looks real tasty! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
What a great idea to used Saran Wrap to flatten it out the crust.
You're always so good with desserts! This looks amazing. Enjoyed participating in the collab with you!
That looks good enough to make. And I think I will. Thank-you
Great summertime dessert 😊
This looks so tasty, anything with pudding and cool whip is usually going to be something I’ll enjoy!
Yum this looks so tasty! Can’t wait to see how you make it!
Superb amazing sharing 👍
Hey hey girl!! I am excited for this recipe. That cake looks amazing 😋
Yum! Nothing beats creamy chocolate and then the nuts for crunch. 😋
I loooove the cool whip pudding combinations! 🤤🤤
Valerie this looks delicious as always. Your recipes are always so pretty too. 🥰
Recipes great as always and you're styling that straight hair girl❤

Look Delicious Great Collabing with you
This looks delicious! I used to make it regularly, and I used instant butterscotch pudding occasionally! I have also seen people use pistachio or lemon instant puddings.
I used to make this in butterscotch for my aunt and uncle. They loved it so much & I used the s/f butterscotch because my aunt was diabetic. I miss them so much💔 The lived a lot longer than my parents and we a blessing.
That’s turned out so good! 😍
This looks so yummy! You always make such yummy desserts!
This looks delicious!!!!
I can never get crust to cooperate either. All those layers yum! It looks thick and sweet.
Absolutely amazing and delicious noce sharing fully watch your video . Have a nice day. God bless.
Great share, I enjoyed watching this so much,thanks for sharing,best wishes,Akshata.stay in touch
⚠️ You must make this with the Pudding that you cook, not instant, and with Homemade Whipping Cream, and the Pecan, Butter + flour crust.
OMG ... It is Heavenly!!! ☀️
You just put plastic wrap on top of the pudding and let it cool, then use it and then chill it.
🔹Pecan Crust
🔹Cream CheesevWhipped Cream
🔹Chocolate Pudding
🔹2nd C Cheese Whipped Cream
🔹Vanilla Pudding
🔹Whipped Cream and 🔹Sprinkled Shaved Pecans
You will so enjoy this!!!
Hello, how much cream cheese do you put in each layer of pudding? I always made it with only 3 layers not 4. Sounds interesting with 4 layers. Everyone always used instant pudding. I think maybe with the cooked pudding it might not get a little soupy or little runny with the left overs. Do you use the powder sugar in your recipe? I had several flavors in the past. They use to make a butter pecan pudding decades ago, And that one version was totally AWSOME !!!!! I loved so many flavors of this. I would like to maybe see if someone else had a butter pecan homemade pudding recipe to try in this again to bring back some other fond memories. I believe your way is that you mix the pudding with half the cream cheese together and that is one layer. Using vanilla or cream cheese pudding flavor whipped with the 2nd half of cream cheese would be another layer. Thank you very much if you could share more information about it and why you chose the cooked version of the pudding instead of the instant pudding version. 🎉🎉🎉 ❤ 😊😊😊 Be safe, healthy and HAPPINESS with you. 😊😊😊
This is my favorite dessert
Yes! It's the best! The bottom crust is my favorite part!😋 Thank you so much for watching!😍
Ive been making it for years but my husband didnt like only chocolate...SO I MIX ONE BOX OF CHOCOLATE PUDDING AND ONE BOX OF VANILLA...ITS REALLY GOOD A LOT BETTER THEN JUST PLAN CHOCOLATE...ITS LIKE MILK CHOCOLATE INSTEAD...SO MUCH BETTER AND I THINK U WOULD LIKE MIXING THE 2 A LOT MORE...MY MOTHER IN LAW DOES PLAIN CHOCOLATE AND I TAKE ONE OF MINE..AND THEY ARE BOTH GONE IN NO TIME BUT EVERYONE ALWAYS ASK WHATS THE DIFFERENCE ..THIS ONE IS A LOT BETTER TASTING AND IT WOULD BE MINE ON THEIR PLATE..SO WHEN SHE REMEMBERS SHE WILL MIX THE 2 ALSO UNLESS SOMEONE ASK FOR CHOCOLATE ONLY....
❤❤❤❤I did this for today!! My mom made this when I was little. Old now making it for my boys. I so glad you commented this!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤

NOTE: Powder sugar not needed. Makes it excessively sweet. Otherwise delicious!
That music is annoying but I made this desert & it was delicious 😋
Hey Kaye! I'm so sorry. That video is kinda old, and hopefully my newer videos are better.😉 Hooe you have a wonderful week!😊
next time try mixing with a fork think you may have just gotten it too creamy.
How much powder sugar, how much flour
Hey Beverly!🥰 The full recipe is typed out in the description box below the video. That is one of my older video, and at that time, I didn't always say all the measurements. In my videos now, I tell every measurement. I hope that helps! Hope you have a wonderful day🥰
I would like it better if quantities were included in the video portion.
Hey! I'm so sorry. That's an older video of mine. I tell exact quantities in all my newer videos. Hope you have a wonderful week!🥰
Please stop the music.
Hey! I have! I can't change that video because it's already been posted. It's 3 or 4 years old. All My newer videos are much better. 🥰
No music please !
This looks delicious!!!
