1/2 cup butter, melted
1 cup flour
3/4 cup walnuts, finely chopped
8 oz. cream cheese, room temperature
1 cup powdered sugar
12 oz. cool whip
2 boxes instant chocolate pudding mix (or any flavor)
2 1/2 cups milk

Directions:
1. Mix butter and flour together then add the ground nuts(save a few for the topping). Pat into 9X13 baking dish.
2. Bake 20 minutes at 350°.
3. Cool.
4. In a mixing bowl mix cream cheese and powdered sugar together, stir in 1/2 of the cool whip.
5.  Spread this mixture over cooled crust. Beat the pudding with milk and spread over the cream cheese. Top with the rest of the cool whip. Sprinkle with the reserved nuts.
6. Refrigerate until serving time. Sometimes I drizzle melted chocolate or chocolate ice cream topping over the top, make it look even more rich.
