what's that dessert?

Question

There is this dessert that is sooo good, but I'm not sure what it's called. It tastes buttery, is cut into squares, sometimes has pecans on the top, and the bottom is this cookie crumb. There's chocolate in it too. If you know any good recipes for this too, that'd be great!

Answer 1

It sounds like a seven layer bar, although I don't use seven layers myself. it is graham crackers mixed with a little sugar and butter pressed into the bottom of a greased baking pan. then you pour condensed milk over the top of the crust ( you may need more than one can and the condensed milk is the thick sticky stuff ). sprink the top with chocolate chips, pecans, coconut if you like, there are two other layers but I can' remember them. then you bake it at 350 degrees for 10-20 minutes. cool and cut into squares. It is sooo yummy, hope that helped.

Better Than Robert Redford Dessert

Crust:
1/2 cup (1 stick) margarine or butter, melted
1/2 cup broken pecans
1 cup flour
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 (8-ounce) package cream cheese, softened at room temperature
1 (12- or 16-ounce) container thawed whipped topping, divided
1 (6-ounce) box or 2 (3-ounce) boxes instant chocolate pudding
3 cups (2-percent) milk, cold

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Crust: Mix melted margarine with pecans and flour. Press into bottom of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake for about 15 minutes or until the crust becomes lightly brown and fairly firm. (Watch carefully and don't allow to burn.) Remove from the oven and cool.

Filling: In a mixing bowl, combine confectioners' sugar, cream cheese and 1 cup whipped topping. Mix until smooth. Spread gently over the cooled crust.

In a bowl, mix together chocolate pudding and milk according to package directions. Spread over cream cheese mixture. Cover with whipped topping (I take a heaping teaspoonful and gently place it on the filling, then repeat until all the pudding is covered. Then I lightly swirl the topping together. It makes a huge and luscious looking pie.)

Refrigerate several hours or overnight.

Answer 3

The first thing that popped into my head when I read your description was baklava. It has buttery layers, with almonds and sometimes chocolate, and the bottom layers are thick and flaky.

Answer 4

Go to recipezaar.com they have pictures of desserts...I believe that is a 7 layer cookie bar ( Has nuts, coconut, chocolate, and oatmeal...)

Answer 5

It sounds like a Nanaimo Bar.
The Nanaimo bar is of Canadian origin - a type of chocolate no-bake square, it has a crumb-based layer, topped by a layer of light custard or vanilla butter icing, which is covered in soft chocolate.
