Lemon Lush

adapted from a friends mom's recipe

Crust

1/2 pkg. Pecan Shortbread Cookies, crushed

3 T butter, melted


Cream Cheese Layer:

8 oz. cream cheese, softened

1 cup confectioners sugar

1 cup cool whip


Pudding Layer:

2 small packages of Instant Lemon Pudding

3 cups milk (I used 2%)


Top Layer:

Cool Whip

Mix crushed cookies and butter and press into an 8 x 11 glass Pyrex baking pan.

Bake for 10 minutes in a 350 degree oven. Cool.


While the crust is cooling, mix softened cream cheese with the confectioners sugar. Fold in the cup of cool whip. Spread over cooled crust and refrigerate for 30 minutes.

Mix lemon pudding with 3 cups of milk and spread over cream cheese layer. I then refrigerate this layer for at least another 30 minutes before spreading the cool whip on top.

salt and pepper to taste


Place potatoes in saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Simmer for 15-20 minutes until tender. Drain. Cook peas according to package directions and drain.


Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan, add flour, salt and pepper to form a paste. Gradually stir in milk. Bring to a boil. Cook and stir for 1 minute or until thickened.


Add peas and potatoes to sauce and serve. Salt and pepper to taste.


* I also like to add salt to my water when I boil the potatoes.
