This recipe came up in one my searches recently and I was unable to stop thinking about it. When we were out shopping I picked up the ingredients to make it. I think we all think it was better than we remembered it. I made a small change to the recipe because I couldn’t find a 5 oz box of pudding mix and made it a bit thicker.
I love Pepperidge Farms Chessman Cookies. They are rich and buttery. They usually have all the chess pieces embossed on the front but these were a special that had spring scenes on them. If you don’t have chessman any real buttery cookie will do.

Directions:
- Cover the bottom of a 13″ x 9″ casserole dish with Chessman cookies.
