    Recipe Introduction


    I've often been inspired by favorite candy bar flavors when creating exciting new desserts, so of course I wanted to invent a version of this much-loved favorite!
    Serves 8


    List of Ingredients


    • 2 (8-ounce) packages Philadelphia fat-free cream cheese
    • 1 (4-serving) package Jell-O sugar-free instant chocolate fudge pudding mix
    • 2/3 cup Carnation Nonfat Dry Milk Powder
    • 1 cup water
    • ½ teaspoon almond extract
    • 1 ½ teaspoons coconut extract *
    • 1 cup Cool Whip Free *
    • 1 (6-ounce) Keebler chocolate piecrust
    • 2 tablespoons flaked coconut
    • 1 tablespoon chopped almonds
    • 1 tablespoon mini chocolate chips


    Instructions


    1. In a large bowl, stir cream cheese with a spoon until soft. Add dry pudding mix, dry milk powder, and water. Mix well using a wire whisk. Blend in almond extract, ½ teaspoon coconut extract, and ¼ cup Cool Whip Free. Spread mixture into piecrust. Refrigerate while preparing topping. In a small bowl, combine remaining ¾ cup Cool Whip Free and remaining 1 teaspoon coconut extract. Spread mixture evenly over chocolate filling. Evenly sprinkle coconut, almonds, and chocolate chips over top. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Cut into 8 servings.
