- 1 cup powdered sugar

- Blend puddings and milk together and carefully spread on top of the cream cheese mixture.

Did You Make This Recipe?We’d love to hear your thoughts! Leave a review or a question in the comment section below the post.
Oh Yeah! I’m liking the looks of this! Can’t wait to try it!
It just looks divine! You had me at chocolate and cream cheese.
Looks yummy…with those ingredients it has to be delish!! 🙂 Blessings!
Great I just baked the one you posted yesterday. Now I’m gonna have to do this one.good thing I have plenty of people willing to eat most of it.
I have been making this dessert with out the brownies for years. I just use a graham cracker crust. I decided to try your recipe tonight with the brownies, I will never make it any other way it so just yummy!!! Now I need to find what to use for my Banana cream pie. Everything is the same I just use banana pudding with sliced bananas..
Loved this!!
How many people does this serve? I am taking a dessert for about 24 people so I’m thinking I should make two of them? What are your thoughts?
It’s in a 9 x 13 inch pan. So you could get 15 to 20 servings, just depends on how big you cut it. It’s so yummy they will want a good sized serving! 🙂 You would need 2 pans for 24 people and that would make for some happy friends knowing they would get 2 servings! Best of luck to you. Thanks for stopping by our blog!! -The Six Sisters
I was searching for cream cheese recipes and this popped up. OMG, it looks soooo amazing! I started drooling looking at it and reading the recipe. Can’t believe it only got 2 stars from reviews. I still plan on trying it myself in the next day or two. It just looks — wow! Too good to be true.
Just made it. Sweet, very sweet, but yummy. You only need a small piece!I had a little trouble spreading the different colored layers on nice and clean and pretty but it all tastes the same, right? Thanks
Does this dessert need to be refrigerated after its made? (Or leftovers)
Yes, this recipe should be kept in the fridge until serving, or any leftovers.
Thank you:)
Are the two pudding mixes combined when mixing with milk?
Yes, the chocolate and vanilla pudding are combined together with the milk.
Do you cook the individual puddings then add milk? Or do you just mix the milk and the uncooked pudding mixes together?
Mix the milk and uncooked pudding mixes together.
Do you set the pudding in the refrigerator before spreading it on top of the cream cheese mixture?
The pudding thickens as you make it. Spread it on top of the cream cheese layer right after you mix it up.
Instead of milk and pudding, I put 3 individual choc/van puddings, so much easier…
Genius!
This was so easy to make ! It is a beautiful dessert. Everyone @ work thought it was delicious!! It deserves 5 or more stars!! I’ll be making it again & again!!?
Hi Celina. We are so glad that it worked out well and everyone at work liked it. Have a great week!!
Im not understanding your comment, “instead of milk & pudding”…
Does this hold up well making it a day ahead of when you will serve it?
You can make this a day ahead and keep it covered in the fridge.
My pudding is not thickening. Did I do something wrong?
Instead of the pudding on top I was going to add mini chocolate chips in the cheesecake recipe n top it with fudge n mini chocolate chips
I believe she means the individual single serve pudding cups already made and ready to eat.
You might try making Blondies for the crust…..brownie with no chocolate.
My family loves this recipe so much! We added strawberries to the top instead of chocolate and it was amazing!!
My family loved this recipe. Great for Holidays or a quick dessert for last minute request.
The picture looks like there is a layer of brownie on top before the whipped topping? Does not seem like the recipe has that as an instruction? Am I missing it?
The chocolate layer on top is chocolate pudding that has been chilled
