Instructions
Making this Easy Butterscotch Pudding Layered Dessert is a breeze with these simple steps:
1. Prepare Pudding: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the instant butterscotch pudding mix and cold milk. Mix for about 2 minutes, or until the mixture thickens. Set aside.
2. Whip Cream: In another bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whip on medium speed until soft peaks form.
3. Layer Cookies: In a large trifle dish or individual serving cups, place a layer of butterscotch-flavored cookies on the bottom.
4. Add Pudding: Spoon a layer of the prepared butterscotch pudding over the cookies, spreading it evenly.
5. Add Whipped Cream: Top the pudding layer with a layer of whipped cream, smoothing it out with a spatula.
6. Repeat Layers: Repeat the layers, starting with the cookies, then pudding, and finally whipped cream, until you run out of ingredients. Aim for at least three layers.
7. Chill: Cover the dessert with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the layers to set.
8. Garnish: Before serving, consider garnishing with chocolate shavings or a drizzle of butterscotch sauce for added visual appeal.
These steps will help you create an incredible dessert that everyone will be excited to try!
