Two Tone Dessert

My sister Barb is very famous for this dessert.  She has made it as far back as I can remember.  When we all get together my brother in law Bill always requests this dessert.  I believe this recipe comes from the Jello Company WAY back in the day. 

For the bottom crust - Mix together
1 cup flour
1/2 cup butter
1 cup finely chopped  nuts (whatever you prefer)

Pat into bottom of a 9 x 13 pan.  Bake at 350 for 10-15 min, Let cool.

While the crust is baking take:
8 oz  package of cream cheese
1 cup powdered sugar
8 oz. of Cool Whip
Beat cream cheese and powdered sugar until light and fluffy.  Fold the cool whip by hand into the cream cheese mixture.  Spread on cooled crust. Refrigerate.

Mix:
2 1/2 cups of milk
2 small packages of instant pudding. (I use both chocolate).
Mix pudding and milk until thoroughly mixed.
Spread on top of cheese layer refrigerate.

Spread another 8 oz cool whip onto chocolate layer then sprinkle with 1/2 cup chopped nuts.

Refrigerate till ready to eat.
