Creme Caramel Squares

Layers of graham crackers, cream cheese whip, vanilla pudding, butterscotch pudding, and Cool Whip make an incredible, fluffy, light dessert!


Well, hello! I'm a little behind today on posting. I meant to schedule more before we moved last weekend, but I didn't do that. We spent Thursday packing the Uhaul (just Nick and I), Friday we started offloading the UHaul at like 4:30 at the new house - closing for selling and buying took all day :/ Saturday we waited on the movers to get the really heavy stuff and finally finished that around 4. Then the rest of Saturday through Monday evening, we attempted to unpack all the boxes and organize and set up everything we could. We're pretty dang close to being done. I'm so in love with my new kitchen!

Anyways, that has nothing to do with the recipe and, I know, I know, bloggers just love to do that (and usually I don't), but anyways....

This dessert is really easy to make. It's very delicious and I think it's a great summer dessert, but it totally would work year round. The cream cheese mixture is kinda like a no-bake cheesecake but fluffier. I love butterscotch pudding a whole whole lot and ugh. Y'all just gotta try this!

It's been forever since I posted a no-bake pudding dessert and it was one of my favorites because root beer is awesome, so check out this Root Beer Float Pie recipe! Another pudding dessert that I think would be the most perfect for summer is this Berries & Cream Layer Dessert with Dulce de Leche recipe from Life, Love, and Sugar.
