Everybody's Favorite Chocolate Ribbon Pie


Ingredients:
two packages (8 oz. Each) cream cheese
Cool Whip (either three small ones or 24 oz. Different packaging...)
Some kind of mixer, blender
a large pack of Jello Instant chocolate pudding
Chocolate graham crackers (the box!)
lemon juice for 'Zing'
Sugar- normal, white, granulated sugar
Put cream cheese and half the cool whip in mixer along with a teaspoon or so of lemon juice. Mix it!
Oh yeah, crust. Food process a pack and a couple pieces of graham cracker with two Tb. Butter and a splash of milk for a while, and then press into the bottom of the dish you're making it in. Preferably a deep rectangular one. Then carefully smooth white layer in it, making sure to spread to edges. Now put the pudding in the mixing bowl and mix with a pack of cool whip. Spread over white layer. Then spread the rest of the cool whip over that.
Then, I don't know. You can make chocolate shavings and put it on top. If you really want to be decorative, mint leaves.  

This one is a Kirkwood family classic.  It's almost too good.  

You'll find yourself sneaking to the kitchen at one o clock for a bite, and not in an endearing "haha midnight snackings! How adorable!" But in a shameful "Why, why can't I stop, I need professional help" kind of way.

Geez.  I just made it sound scary.  

Guys, don't worry.  It's not quite that dire.

Especially if you make the pudding layer too thick.  Then you're relatively safe.
