How to Make Creamy Candy Bar Dessert

  1. **Make the Crust:** In a medium bowl, combine 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs, ½ cup granulated sugar, and ½ cup (1 stick) melted margarine. Mix until evenly moistened.
  2. Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of an ungreased 13x9 inch baking pan.
  3. **Prepare the Fudge Layer:** In a small saucepan, heat 1 (12 ounce) jar of chocolate fudge topping over low heat, stirring occasionally, until smooth and warmed.
  4. Pour the warm fudge topping evenly over the prepared crust.
  5. **Cool:** Let the fudge layer cool for 15 minutes.
  6. **Make the Filling:** In a large bowl, beat together 2 cups cold milk, 1 (3.4 ounce) package instant chocolate pudding mix, and 8 ounces whipped topping until stiff peaks form (about 2-3 minutes).
  7. **Add Candy:** Gently fold in 1 ½ cups chopped Snickers or Three Musketeers candy bars, reserving some pieces for topping.
  8. **Assemble:** Spread the pudding mixture evenly over the cooled fudge layer.
  9. **Top & Chill:** Sprinkle the remaining candy bar pieces over the top.
  10. Cover and refrigerate for at least 2-3 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the dessert to set completely.
  11. **Serve & Enjoy!** Slice and serve chilled.
