This is really rich and creamy and oh so good. I would leave out the recess peanut butter cups next time (might put a layer of sliced bananas instead). I will fix this again, but would present it differently. I think that a martini glass filled with this would look good and present very well. Thank you for posting ratherbeswimmin.

After reading reviews I decided to use thin chocolate cookies instead of the cream filled, to cut down on the sweetness. Worked perfectly. I also used regular pudding instead of instant, as we like it better. This is a treat that can be switched up by using different candy bars. Snickers or Butterfingers come to mind for the next time I make them, and there will be a next time!
