1 c water
1/2 c butter
1 c flour
4 eggs
filling:
8 oz cream cheese
2 1/2 c milk
6 oz box vanilla instant pudding
1 large cool whip topping
2 hershey candy bars

Steps:

1. Bring water and butter to a boil. Add the flour. Stir and remove from heat. Add 4 eggs one at a time. Beat well after each addition. NOTE: The picture is before adding the eggs.
2. Put in a grease jelly roll pan or 13x9 pan. Bake at 400 degrees for 30 minutes. If baking in 13X9 bake 10 minutes longer. Cool completely.
3. Beat cream cheese, milk and pudding mix together. Spread on top of cooled pastry. Top with cool whip. NOTE: I decided to add sliced fresh picked strawberries on top of the pudding/cream cheese mixture.
4. Melt chocolate bars. Drizzle over Cool Whip.
5. Jelly roll pan will be a thinner bar and 13X9 thicker more like a piece of cake!!!
6. Just to let you know. I lightly grease my finger tip and pat this in the pan! When this bakes it puffs up and does not have a uniform shape. Make sure that your cream cheese is room temp. and beat it with a little of the milk first to get it creamy. Then add the rest of the milk and pudding. Beat until smooth. I use a large Cool Whip and one candy bar is enough for me. I like the looks!!~
