Sugar Free Chocolate Delight

My husband was recently diagnosed with diabetes.  Because of that we have learned  A LOT about what foods spike his sugar levels and which don't.  Through much experimenting I have developed some dessert recipes that satisfy his sweet tooth but don't elevate his blood sugar.  They are simple, delicious and satisfying.  I dare you to serve them to your friends and family and see if they even notice the difference! Video Tutorial for this recipe.

Ingredients:
1 Package of Sugar Free Chocolate Pudding
1 8 oz container of Sugar Free Cool Whip
2 cups of cold Milk
4 oz of Cream Cheese at room temperature
1/2 cup of no calorie sweetener such as Splenda
1/2 package of Sugar Free Creme Sandwich Cookies
2 Tbs of Butter
1/2 cup Chopped Pecans - optional

To crush the cookies you can use a food processor or put them in a ziplock bag and pound them with the back of a spoon or with a rolling pin.  Crush the cookies and mix with the butter then pat into the bottom of a small casserole dish.  Mix the softened cream cheese with the Splenda and half of the container of cool whip and carefully spread over the cookie crust.  Mix the milk and pudding together with a hand mixer or wire whisk for 2 minutes and pour over the cream cheese mixture.  Refridgerate for 15 minutes then spread the rest of the cool whip over the pudding layer.  Sprinkle with chopped pecans if desired.
