List of Ingredients



• 1 3/4 cups vanilla wafer crumbs (from about 40 cookies, crushed)
  
• 1/2 cup butter or margarine, melted
  
• 1 (5 ounce) package cook and serve vanilla pudding and pie filling (do not use instant pudding mix)
  
• 2 1/2 cups milk
  
• 1 small cantaloupe, seeded, peeled and coarsely diced
  
• 1 cup heavy cream
  






Instructions



1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees. In a 10" pie plate, combine vanilla wafer crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture onto the bottom and sides of the pie plate; make a slight edge. Bake until lightly browned, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool on wire rack.
   
   
2. Meanwhile, in a large saucepan, prepare pudding mix according to label directions but using only 2 1/2 cups milk. Drain cantaloupe pieces well on paper towels; stir the cantaloupe into the pudding mixture. Cover the surface of the pudding mixture with plastic wrap; refrigerate until set, about 30 minutes. Whip the cream and fold into the pudding mixture; spoon into the crust. Refrigerate until set.
