Creating the Perfect Crust

Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, room temperature butter, and brown sugar.
Blend these ingredients until they form a crumbly mixture.
Stir in the finely chopped pecans until they are evenly distributed.
Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9×13-inch baking dish.
Bake in the preheated oven for about 20 minutes or until the crust turns golden brown.
Making the Creamy Layer
The Creamy Delight Unveiled

While the crust is cooling, prepare the creamy layer. In a separate bowl, beat the room temperature cream cheese until it becomes smooth and creamy.
Gradually add the powdered sugar and beat until well combined.
Gently fold in the Cool Whip until the mixture is uniform.
Chocolate Pudding Filling
The Chocolatey Core

In another bowl, prepare the chocolate pudding mix by whisking it with 3 cups of milk. Make sure it’s well mixed and begins to thicken.
Once the crust has cooled, spread the cream cheese mixture evenly over it.
Next, pour the chocolate pudding mixture over the cream cheese layer. Spread it out evenly.
Adding the Toppings
The Finishing Touch

Sprinkle the chopped pecans on top of the chocolate pudding layer for that delightful crunch.
Finish by spreading a generous layer of Cool Whip over the entire dessert.
Chilling and Serving
Let It Set and Enjoy

Cover your dessert with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until it’s set.
When it’s time to serve, cut into squares and savor the decadent combination of chocolate, pecans, and creamy goodness.
