  • Total Time: 4 hours 15 minutes
  • Yield: 15 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 6.8 ounces instant pistachio pudding mix

  • 2 ¾ cups milk

  • 16 ounces whipped topping (thawed and divided)

  • 14.4 ounces graham crackers (1 box)

  • Chopped pistachios (optional topping)

Instructions

  • In a large bowl, whisk together instant pistachio pudding mix and milk for 2 minutes until thick and creamy.

  • Fold in ½ of the whipped topping until the mixture becomes smooth and light.

  • Line the bottom of a 9 x 13-inch dish with a single layer of graham crackers.

  • Spread half of the pudding mixture evenly over the crackers.

  • Add another layer of graham crackers, then spread the remaining pudding mixture on top.

  • Add one final layer of graham crackers and top with the rest of the whipped topping.

  • Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight or for at least 4 hours.

  • Before serving, garnish with chopped pistachios if desired. Slice and serve chilled.

Notes

  • Make sure the pudding is thick before layering; this helps the cake hold its shape.

  • For a lighter version, use sugar-free pudding and light whipped topping.

  • You can replace graham crackers with digestive biscuits or vanilla wafers.

  • Chill longer for a softer, cake-like texture.
