This is a very good desert. I've made it for years and it is always a hit. I like to double the chocolate layer and the cream cheese layer. You can also change the flavor of pudding you use. Pistachio is great for Christmas with a red maraschino cherry for color. I prefer to use real cream instead of the whipped topping.

I'm 49 and have lived in western Oklahoma my entire life. We began keeping kosher a few years ago, and we've enjoyed adapting our favorite recipes to comply. Not that difficult, really, with substitutions of turkey products for pork. My hubby likes to ad-lib and uses lots of spices creatively (especially the hot ones!) I prefer to stick to recipes.
