How to Make 5 Layer Delicious Dessert
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).

- **Cool Whip Layer:** Spread 1 (8 ounce) container of whipped topping evenly over the pudding layer.
- **Chocolate Layer:** Grate 1 (1.55 ounce) Hershey's chocolate bar over the top.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until completely set, before serving.
