Ingredients
Crust
- 2 cups (168 g) honey graham crackers, finely crushed (about 14 graham cracker sheets, crushed)
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- ½ cup (1 stick / 113 g) unsalted butter, melted
Cream Cheese Layer
- 1 block (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup (62.5 g) confectioners' sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 container (8 ounces) whipped topping, thawed, divided
Butterscotch Layer
- 1 box (5.1 ounces) instant butterscotch pudding
- 2 cups (16 ounces / 488 g) whole milk, cold
Toppings
- butterscotch sauce, for drizzling
- butterscotch chips, for topping
Instructions
- Line a 9x9-inch baking dish with parchment paper, including up the sides of the dish. Set aside.
- In a medium bowl, mix together the graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Add the melted butter and stir until fully combined with no dry spots.
- Press the crumbs firmly into the bottom of the lined baking dish in an even layer. Flatten the crust with the bottom of a glass. Place in the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the toppings.
- To a large bowl, add cream cheese. Using a hand mixer on medium speed, beat the cream cheese until creamy (1-2 minutes).
- Add confectioners' sugar and vanilla. Beat again until no lumps remain (about 1-2 minutes).
- Using a spatula, gently fold in 2 cups of whipped topping.
- Remove the crust from the refrigerator. Dollop the cream cheese mixture over the crust and spread into an even layer.
- Place the pan back into the refrigerator to chill while you prepare the remaining ingredients.
- To a separate mixing bowl, add pudding mix and milk. Beat with a hand mixer on medium speed for 1-2 minutes, or until all lumps are gone. Set aside for 5 minutes to allow the mixture to thicken.
- Pour the butterscotch mixture on top of the cream cheese layer.
- Place in the refrigerator to chill for 2 hours, up to overnight.
- When ready, top with the remaining whipped topping, butterscotch sauce, and butterscotch chips. Serve chilled.
