How to Make Miss Lillian's Peanut Dessert
- **Crust Layer:** In a large bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour and 1 cup (2 sticks) cold unsalted margarine. Cut in using a pastry blender until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
- Stir in 1 cup chopped peanuts.
- Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 9x13 inch baking pan.
- Bake at 350°F (175°C) for 20 minutes. Let cool completely.
- **Peanut Butter Frosting Layer:** In a medium bowl, cream together 1 cup creamy peanut butter and 8 ounces of softened cream cheese until smooth.
- Gradually beat in 1 cup powdered sugar until light and fluffy.
- Gently fold in 1 cup whipped topping.
- Spread evenly over the cooled crust.
- **Pudding Layer:** In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups milk and 2 (3.4 ounce) instant chocolate pudding mixes until smooth and creamy.
- Spread the pudding evenly over the peanut butter frosting layer.
- **Chocolate & Peanut Topping:** Grate 2 ounces of semi-sweet chocolate over the pudding layer.
- Sprinkle 1/3 cup dry roasted, chopped peanuts over the chocolate.
- Refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld and the dessert to set.
