We had a problem with some of our ingredients not getting here in time to do the pumpkin version of this recipe so with some quick thinking by our Savory Selections leader we came up with this yummy variation! People liked it so much I thought we should put it up on our blog for everyone to see. We hope you all had a wonderful and safe Halloween!
1 pkg Chocolate Chip Cookie mix (we used dry but you could use the cookie dough in the tubes)
2 pkgs. White Chocolate Pudding Mix
3 C. Milk
8 oz. Cool Whip
Hershey's chocolate syrup
Follow package directions to make the cookie dough if using dry mix. Press the dough into a 12 inch pizza pan and bake at 325 for 15-20 minutes. Cool completely.
Mix the milk with the pudding packages until smooth. Add the cool whip and allow to set up for 10 minutes. Top cookie with the pudding mixture leaving a 1/4-1/2 inch of the cookie showing. Next take the Hershey's syrup and make a target design on the pudding mixture by drizzling a small circle in the center, then a bigger circle, and an even bigger circle around that one.
Lastly use a paring knife or toothpick drag the very tip of the knife through the pudding and chocolate syrup as if you were cutting a pizza but not the crust.
