Ingredients

  • 1 cup plus 2 tbsp. skim milk, divided
  • 2 tbsp. (half a 4-serving package) sugar-free fat-free chocolate instant pudding mix
  • 1 cup Cool Whip Free, thawed
  • 4 Vitalicious VitaTops (Deep Chocolate, Double Chocolate Dream, or Triple Chocolate Chunk), thawed
  • 1/4 cup light or fat-free caramel dip (like the kinds by Marzetti)
  • 2 tbsp. chopped pecans
  • 2 tbsp. shredded sweetened coconut

Directions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup skim milk with pudding mix. Whisk until thoroughly blended and thickened, about 2 minutes. Refrigerate for 5 minutes.

  2. Gently fold in the Cool Whip, until completely combined. Refrigerate for at least another 5 minutes.

  3. Break VitaTops into pieces and place in a blender. Pulse until reduced to crumbs. Set aside.

  4. Combine caramel dip with remaining 2 tbsp. skim milk in a small microwave-safe bowl. Microwave for about 45 seconds, until softened. Mix well. Stir in pecans and coconut, and set aside.

  5. Lay about one-third of the Vita crumbs along the bottom of a medium serving dish/bowl. Top evenly with half of the pudding/Cool Whip mixture.

  6. Drizzle half of the caramel mixture over the pudding/Cool Whip layer, and then sprinkle about half of the remaining Vita crumbs into the dish/bowl.

  7. Spread the remaining pudding/Cool Whip mixture over the Vita layer. Finally, top with the remaining Vita crumbs, and drizzle or top with the remaining caramel mixture.

  8. Serve with 5 spoons! (Or just dole out a serving and refrigerate the rest!)
