The perfect summer dessert: Lemon Lush!

My family absolutely loves this and even asks for it instead of cake for their birthday!

You can put this dessert together in no time in just three easy steps.

STEP 1:

For the crust, mix together 1 cup flour, 1 T. sugar, 1 tsp. baking powder, 1/2 cup chopped walnuts or pecans and one stick melted butter. Press into a 13x9 pan and bake at 350 degrees for 10 minutes or until brown. Let cool.


STEP 2

For the next layer, mix together 8 oz. softened cream cheese, 1 cup confectioner's sugar (10x), and 1 cup whipped topping (Cool-Whip). Spread on top of cooled crust.


STEP 3

Next, mix together 1 large *lemon instant pudding and 3 cups cold milk. Spread over cream cheese layer. And finally, spread with remaining whipped topping. Chill and cut into squares.

*While other flavors of pudding (like chocolate) can be used, lemon is, in our opinion, THE BEST!!
