Ingredients

  • 10.2 ounce box instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 6 cups milk
  • 14.4 ounce box graham crackers (approximately)
  • 8 ounce container cool whip

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In a large bowl, whisk together the pudding mix with the milk for 2 minutes. Set aside for 5 minutes to thicken.
  2. Line the bottom of a 9x13-inch pan with graham crackers (you may need to use halves or quarters to fill in spots).
  3. Spread half of the pudding over the layer of graham crackers. Add another layer of graham crackers on top of the pudding, then spread with the remaining pudding. Top with a final layer of graham crackers and spread the Cool Whip evenly over top. Crush 1 graham cracker into crumbs and sprinkle over the Cool Whip.
  4. Cover and refrigerate until cold and set, about 3 hours, or overnight. Leftovers should be stored, covered, in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Notes

  • Nutritional values are based on one serving
  • You may not use all of the graham crackers in the box, that's okay.
