Directions: |
Directions:Preheat oven to 350ºF. In a large bowl, add the flour and the cut up butter. Using a pastry blender or 2 knives, cut the butter into the flour until the mixture looks like small peas. Stir in the walnuts. Press into a 13 x 9-inch pan. Bake for 20 minutes.
Remove from oven and cool completely. Beat cream cheese, confectioner's sugar and the 1 cup of whipped topping until the mixture is smooth and silky. Spread this across the cooled crust in the pan.
Prepare pistachio pudding by whisking it into the milk--whisking for 1-2 minutes until the pudding begins to thicken. Spread the pudding on top of the cheese layer. Chill for about 2-3 hours. Top with the 2 cups of whipped topping and sprinkle with toasted almonds (if using). |
