A Recipe for the Fourth

At least once a year I make a dessert out of Cool Whip, vanilla pudding, Graham Crackers and chocolate frosting. It has never failed to produce in me a “God bless America” moment. And if I can make it, so can you:

First, take 1 tub of Cool Whip, 2 packets vanilla pudding and 3 cups milk. Mix them together. Line a 9 by 13 dish with Graham Crackers, pour half the mixture on. Add another layer of crackers and then the other half of the mixture. Add one more layer of crackers and then the chocolate frosting. Couldn’t be easier. 


Happy fourth of July to you all and, sincerely, may God bless you.
