Possum Pie

Ever heard of Possum Pie? (No, it doesn't contain roadkill - lol)

It's a family favorite at our house, even though the children gave me the typical oh-no-mom-is-making-something-weird-again look the first time I made it.

Once your family realizes that there's no possum in it, it will be a family favorite at your house, too.  :)

Here's the recipe...

2 pkgs. (3 oz. each)  cream cheese (softened)
3/4 c. powdered sugar
Mix these ingredients well and put in a 9" graham cracker crust

Sprinkle with 1/4 c. chopped pecans.


Next, combine 1/3 c. instant chocolate pudding mix, 1/4 c. instant vanilla pudding mix,  2 c. cold milk, and 3/4 t. vanilla extract in a bowl. Mix on low speed for 2 minutes. Spoon over pecans/cream cheese mixture.


Chill for at least 2 hours.  Top with 1/2 c. whipping cream (whipped) and sugar to taste. Garnish with powdered cocoa or pecan halves. 8 servings.





Have a blessed day, friends!
