Delicious Chocolate Drumstick Dessert – A Great Chocolate Treat Anytime
When I eat this chocolate drumstick dessert it brings back memories of the ice cream truck driving through town, playing hypnotic music, like that of the pied piper, enticing the kids to come running for a frozen treat. And run we did, with coins in our hands and excitement written all over our faces, as we contemplated which treat would be ours that day.
Sadly, the ice cream truck experience is almost a thing of the past. This past summer I did, however, see just such a truck. I spoke with the driver and he said he’s having a great time. That was the only one I’ve seen in a very long time. And yes, I know I’m dating myself by admitting that. Those of you that remember this experience, though, know it was one of the best things a kid looked forward to during summer break.
This luscious chocolate drumstick dessert now has to be bought at the store. Why not, instead, mix up this yummy homemade version for your next party? Better yet, make a pan full for your family and friends just because!
Delicious Chocolate Drumstick Dessert
Ingredients:
2 cups vanilla wafers (crushed)
1 cup crushed peanuts
1/2 cup melted butter or margarine
1 8-ounce package cream cheese
1/3 cup peanut butter
1 cup confectioners’ sugar
4 cups whipped topping
2 small packages instant chocolate pudding
3 cups milk
1 small chocolate candy bar
Directions:
Mix crushed vanilla wafers, 2/3 cup of the crushed peanuts and margarine together. With the back of a spoon, spread this “crust” mixture in a 9×13 inch pan and bake at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10 minutes. Cool.
Mix cream cheese, peanut butter and confectioners’ sugar until smooth and creamy. Fold in 2 cups whipped topping and spread over the cooled crust layer. Refrigerate.
In the meantime, mix pudding and milk together. Pour on top of the cream cheese layer and refrigerate until set.
Spread remaining 2 cups whipped topping over the pudding layer and top with the last of the crushed peanuts. Grate the chocolate bar and sprinkle over the top. Cover and freeze. This may be served right from the freezer or can be served after sitting at room temperature, approximately 10-15 minutes.
This dessert can even be prepared ahead of time and frozen until its time to enjoy. The chocolate and peanut combination will make your taste buds sing for more.
