A combination of a few recipes and this was created, kids love it! Regardless of someone finding this on TOH with similarities, I state this is a combination of 2 different Jello pudding recipes. I wanted the filling of one combined into the other. that is why there is a cream cheese filling in mine. I combined the two Jello pudding pie recipes to suit my needs.

Pour remaining milk in a large bowl add puddings and mix until smooth, should be really thick.
Spoon 1 1/2 cup of pudding into crust and spread evenly.
Stir in 1/2cup of the Cool Whip into remaining pudding and whip to incorporate. fold in another 1/4 c cool whip to make fluffy.

I found this recipe in the Taste of Home Grilling magazine but it did not call for the cream cheese. Other than that it is the same recipe and it is wonderful. We loved it without the cream cheese so maybe next time I'll add it too! Thanks!
