You might remember your mom making this dessert when you were younger. I do remember mine making it! I found this recipe in my mom's recipe collection. She had cut it out of a magazine.

Striped Delight Dessert

1-1/2 cup cookie crumbs

1/4 cup sugar

1/3 cup melted butter

1 pkg 8-oz cream cheese, softened

1/4 cup sugar

2 T milk

1 container 8-oz Cool Whip, thawed

2 pkg (4 serving) Jell-O brand instant pudding

3-1/2 cups cold milk

Combine crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar and melted butter. Press firmly into bottom of 13x9 inch pan; chill 5 minutes. Or, for firmer crust bake at 375 for 8 minutes; cool. Beat cream cheese with 1/4 cup sugar and 2 T milk until smooth. Fold in half the whipped topping. Spread over crust. Prepare pudding as directed on package, using the 3-1/2 cups milk; pour over cream cheese layer. Chill several hours or overnight. Spread remaining whipped topping over pudding.

Some suggested flavors: Chocolate pudding with graham cracker crumbs, butterscotch or lemon pudding with gingersnap crumbs. So many different combinations you can use.
