How to Make Chocolate Cherry Dessert
- Crush 1 ½ cups chocolate wafers in a large zip-top bag a few at a time.
- Transfer the crushed wafers to an 8x8x2 inch baking pan, reserving 2 tablespoons of crumbs for garnish.
- Pour ½ cup melted butter over the cookie crumbs in the pan and mix thoroughly with a fork.
- Use your hands to press the mixture evenly into the bottom of the pan, creating a firm crust.
- Refrigerate the crust for at least 30 minutes, or until firm.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 (16 ounce) container of sour cream, ½ cup milk, and 3.4 ounces (1 package) instant chocolate pudding mix. Beat on low speed with an electric mixer for about 1 minute, until smooth.
- Spread the pudding mixture evenly over the chilled wafer crust.
- Gently spoon 1 (21 ounce) can cherry pie filling evenly over the pudding layer. Sprinkle the reserved 2 tablespoons of cookie crumbs on top.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours, or until completely chilled.
- Cut into squares and enjoy this delicious dessert!
