I make a pie out of this and it's awesome use either a shortbread or graham cracker crust.

This was the perfect finish for a dinner made up of Ree's Spicy Pop Pulled Pork, Anne Burrell's Braised String Beans, and some potatoes. Every single person cleaned their plate. I left out the peanuts, but otherwise followed the recipe exactly. I would recommend making it in the individual glasses if you have the patience though, as it makes a prettier presentation than in a large trifle bowl like I did.

A great recipe that wowed my crowd. I made some slight changes. I used sugar free vanilla pudding mix instead of chocolate pudding, skim milk instead of whole milk, fat free cream cheese instead of regular and fat free cool whip. Made them up in individual glasses and everyone loved them. Even my husband who usually will not eat a dessert unless it is lemony devoured this! Thank you, Paula this one is a keeper!
