Chocolate Cherry Dessert image

This is an easy yummy recipe I got out of a Better Homes and Gardens Kid's Cookbook when I was little. The combo of chocolate and cherries is a winner! A great recipe for kids to help with. *Time doesn't include chilling time*

Time 20m

Yield 9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

26 chocolate wafers
1/4 cup butter or 1/4 cup margarine, melted
8 ounces sour cream
1 1/2 ounces instant chocolate pudding mix (the 4 servings size)
1 1/4 cups milk
21 ounces cherry pie filling

Steps:

  • Crush up the chocolate wafers a few at a time in a big zip lock bag. **(all areas may not have chocolate wafers, it is a cookie like Oreos but without the cream, not a sandwich cookie)**.
  • Put the crushed wafers cookies into an 8x8x2 inch pan, reserving 2 tablespoons of the crumbs for later.
  • Pour the melted butter over the cookie crumbs in the pan and stir together with a fork.
  • With your hands spread the mixture evenly over the inside bottom of the pan, and press firmly to form a crust.
  • Refrigerate the crust for 30 minutes or until firm.
  • Put the sour cream, milk, and the dry pudding mix into a big bowl, and with an electric mixer beat on low for about a minute, until smooth (then be sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix again for about 30 seconds).
  • Spread the pudding mixture evenly over the wafer crust.
  • Carefully spoon the cherry pie filling evenly over the pudding mixture, and then sprinkle the reserved 2 tablespoons cookie crumbs on top.
  • Cover with clear plastic wrap and refrigerate for 3 hours or more until cold.
  • Cut up and enjoy!
