Instructions

  • Using an electric mixer, whip together both packages of pudding mix with 3 cups of half and half and vanilla in a medium-size mixing bowl. Whip for 2-3 minutes or just until the pudding is beginning to thicken but, is still pourable. Pour into another bowl. Set aside.
  • In the same medium-size mixing bowl cream together softened cream cheese with one container whipped topping. Whip until smooth and fully combined.
  • Add the pudding to the whipped creamed cheese mixture. Continue to whip on medium speed about 2 minutes or until smooth and fully combined.
  • Assemble: In a 4 quart or larger trifle bowl layer 1/3 cubed cake, drizzle with 1/3 pie filling, 1/2 whipped cheesecake. Repeat ending with cake and pie filling.
