Lemon Delight Dessert

Why not make individual desserts that guests can carry home for your next party or luncheon???

I usually make this dessert in a 9 x 12 inch pan. 

But, it worked perfectly to make in these 4 Rubbermaid glass containers instead!

Start by chopping up 1/2 cups nuts.  

I like to chop these very fine. 

Combine the pecans with 1 1/2 cups of plain flour and 

2/3 cup melted butter. 

Press this mixture in the bottom of pan (or in this case pans) and bake at 350 degrees for 25 minutes. 

Next cream an 8 oz pkg cream cheese with 1 cup powdered sugar and 1cup cool whip. 

Spread this mixture over the top of the crust. 

Blend 3 cups milk with 2 small packages Lemon Instant pudding. 

Spread this mixture over the cream cheese.

Top with cool whip. 

Add some lemon zest or other decorations if you like! 

I added some rosemary sprigs and a slice of lemon. These turned out so pretty. 

I added a little velvet ribbon just for fun!

This dessert is great for a light treat at the end of a meal.
