My best friend had been telling me about a chocolate lush her family would make at family gatherings for a few months. It’s also sometimes called “Butterscotch Delight.”

The other night we were together, and rummaging through my pantry looking for a fun recipe to make.

I found a couple of packages of butterscotch pudding. They were calling my name.

Butterscotch pudding is my favorite pudding flavor. It’s so rich and creamy.

This amazing layered dessert was everything I was hoping it would be, and more.

I had tasted each layer, licking the bowl, while making it, and they each were divine. I knew the recipe was going to be magical.

The layers are such a perfect combination, that this Butterscotch Lush is to die for.

Creamy layers, sweet layers, and then a magical graham cracker crush that ties it all together. Heavenly.

You can slice it into 9 big squares, and you’ll be happy you did, or cut them a bit smaller if you have a big group to share with.

The toppings really makes it such a pretty dessert, that it will be the first one devoured from the dessert table.

I’ve since tried the classic chocolate lush version, but the butterscotch is my very favorite! These flavors are just dreamy together.
